Rear Window Leak

[JohnHaggerty]

I'm old (and other things I've done to my body) so my memory doesn't work like it use to. A few years ago or more I found water (a couple of inches) under my drivers side rear seat. It turned out to be clogged drain holes for the sliding rear window. We just got 12" of rain from Debby and I have 2" of water under the drivers side rear seat. Anyone know how to clear the drain(s). I'll try, but I thought someone could remind me.
Thanks!

I got it! Open window to get slack in the cable. Pull back on plastic retainer to release end of cable to expose track. Clean track to expose drain hole. Clean hole with q-tip, squirt of water, squirt of air and repeat. Performance can be felt by the blowing of air outside on the bottom of the window. Open all windows and doors to let dry out!

Thanks!

I had similar issues, but it went much further. The weather stripping shrunk so much that rain would pour into the cab through the sliding rear window. I almost never used the window, so I just took some silicone sealer and ran some around the entire window. It's been several years and not a drop of water has made it through. At the time, I couldn't find the weather stripping to repair it. If anyone knows where to find it, let me know.

I rarely open the window. I see the bottom two corners are probably culprits. I'm going to silicone those two corners.
