I have water dripping from the bottom of my front bull-bars and can't figure out where it's coming from. The van hasn't gotten wet in days so any ideas what might be causing this?
Thanks

Re: Water leak?
if you can answer a few of these, it may give a better idea
where more specifically. under at the front or under at the rear where it bolts to the frame.
what does the water taste like (yes a little taste won't kill you but let you know if there's diesel, oil or coolant in it)
have you used your a/c recently
do you have any pin holes in your bull bar. it's hollow and can hold a good amount of water
did you do the wetfloor syndrome fix (vertical seam behind the 1/4 panel under windshield).
and last how much water ?

Where it bolts to the frame on the passenger side
I'll have to do a taste test when it stops raining now
Yes, the A/C has been in use
I don't believe there are any holes (at least not near that area)
I have done the wet floor fix
It drips every few seconds

Re: Water leak?
The AC always creates water and leaves a little puddle under the condenser, right by the bull bars.

Happy Day!

Re: Water leak?
That's a releif, I'd never noticed it until after I put my skid plate on and worried I may have knocked something loose.
Thanks

Re: Water leak?
With the MLB it drips onto her valkyrie breast plate and rolls off to one side.
Kinda like when you're wearing something bulky and you get a drip of sweat that gathers in your armpit then rolls down your left flank, gingerly across all those sensitive and ticklish areas on the way down while you are trying to concentrate on something really important like holding onto the edge of a cliff.
