As my driveway is a hill, it was parked uphill.

So where are these sunroof drains at and what's tbe best tip for cleaning them?
As I haad tbe truck on the lift earlier, it would have been nice to know about the a/c drains. Are tbey on each side of.the tranny? I think I did use the defrost Saturday so this could be a possibility.
If I don't fiind it soon, it will be a few weeks as I'm having surgery in a week. Either way I will let you know.

if its not the sunroof drain id check the rust around the bottom right of the windshield. I had my windshield replaced and got screwed for it. Then there was the IC plenum that leaked if that wasnt it

If you're parked with the truck facing uphill the sunroof drains are useless. They're mounted at the fron of the sunroof, and when the water runs to the back, it just spills over into the headliner.

I added drains in the back of mine to avoid ruining the new headliner I'm installing.

Also corrected all the problems with the sunroofs.

As its always parked on a hill and this is the first time I've seen this, I'm betting on the ac drain. The onky rust on the truck is surface chasis and the rear wheel liners. The truck came from Maryland.

Default Leaky sunroof

I am thinking about sealing my sunroofs shut I have cleaned out drains a couple of times and it still leaks. Maybe I need drains in the back as previous mentioned. But either way the truck is parked, up or downhill, if it rains hard I still get a leak.
Afraid it will ruin my headliner "again" + Tired of messing with them Plus I read on here or other forum The water can leak down into the electronics in the dash and cause problems. "SWMBO " as S Buzz calls her won't drive it much anymore due to that and few other things.
Move near the desert might be a plan.. She would do that for sure.
Either way I have not had much luck stopping them from dripping on me after a hard rain
