Windshield leak?
I had my windshield replaced on my 87 F250 and noticed it leaked. The windshield people reworked it and it still leaked. I got to thinking it might be the clearance lights on the roof but never realy got a chance to look into it. Now I have my 350 and I saw a leak in the same spot along the top of the windshield!!!!! Is this a windshield or clearance light thing????

Either/or, I had a truck with those leaky lights as well as a motorhome.
Ya just gotta get up there and take each one apart. If they have seals/gaskets...replace them and use some sealant as well. If you let it continue eventually you will see signs of body cancer. jmho

I install autoglass. If it's the windshield, the only way to fix it right is to have it removed and reset. Trust me. Also if there is any rust on the pinchweld,that could be causing your leak and needs to be addresed before reinstall. Also have a quality shop do the work. Unfortunately a quality shop is hard to come by. Just my .02
