1968 Overlander window leaks
Hey everyone! So I know from researching this is an issue that has been explored, discussed and evaluated dozens of times. I really have researched this and used the search feature dozens of times but I can't find an exact match so I figured I would ask. I finally started replacing my subfloor after concluding I was leak proof..... I was wrong. There appears to be water seeping in around the window not in the seal or the hinge but specifically below the window sill where the u channel 1.5" spacer fits. I have: replaced window seals (including fixed window seals), run a bead of acryl-r around the edges where the gap is, rebucked rivets where they failed the suction test and I still have water seeping in and running down to my new plywood.
Has anyone else found a solution? I am at a point where I am considering drilling out all the rivets, slapping some Trempro in there and wet bucking all new modified (small head big shank) rivets in. It seems like overkill but at somepoint I have to do something different.
