Well over a year ago, during my Overlander's refurb, I posted a picture in my photo gallery of number 1 son pointing out leaky wheel wells:
The photo's text included, to the effect, "... These will be sealed from the outside before going camping. Welll, that never quite happened.
I thought the water on the floor during 2004's trip to Disney was the result of a leaky air conditioner, and never gave a second thought to the wheel wells. But on our trip home from the Fort Desoto Rally a couple of weeks ago, we encountered a significant amount of rain, and the floor was wet. Again.
Since the A/C leak had been successfully repaired, the wheel well issue bubbled up in my mind. So, the wheels were pulled, and all wheel well seams caulked with suitable sealant about a week before our 1400 mile trip to Disney World. Success! We encountered just enough driving rain during our trip down that I should have found water on the floor IF any was getting in. The floor was dry.
Vintage owners - Don't forget about your wheel wells (like I did).
