Rain water leak from??

Afternoon fellas, is there a common leak that developes in our trucks @ the windshield or somewhere else that shows up here; just aft of the accelerator peddal? Being an AZ truck I wonder if I should have the windshield resealed?

I have read a few issues of windshield leaks dripping onto the computer and frying it... so the windshield would be a good place to start.

I noticed the area between my windshield and where the roof flattens out rusting on mine...working on getting that taken care of now...

Had your windshield replaced in the last 5 years?

Thanks guys, I've had the truck for 3 years and during my ownership I haven't replaced it, I'd venture to say its original.. I know some early superdutys had an issue but I've not herd of our trucks having any problems; tho I haven't looked into it that much ether... Sorry about the indexing of the pic...

Having had the windshield out of mine and the same leak issues. I found the area under the wind shield very rusted. You can carefully pop the trim outside and inside and have a look. Test with compressed air. It should push any moisture out.
