    After searching the inter webs and forum, I haven’t really run across a thread about liquid dripping on my feet. Three or four large droplets yesterday and again today... stopped after a few drips each time. My Dads 01 SR5.


    -Hasn’t rained hard.
    -Without A/c on.
    -checked A/c drain and it seems clear (thought maybe it was plugged and some water was blowing over to other side).

    Not really sure if it’s water or coolant.

    I have this happen all the time to me. No idea what’s the cause of it though. I just assumed it was from my AC because I always have it running usually.

    The only time anything similar to this has happened to me the AC was on during a humid day.

    I'm of no help, but maybe the bump and tags this post will get will help you.

    2007 Year and I don’t know anything about this other than get a flash light and start pulling things back to the source.

    Never had this problem on the 1st Gen. The Condenser is on the Pass Side so any drops on the driver side would be either condensation on the short piece of duct work or clogged drain backing up.

    Dive in and follow the drip.

    Yes I did. But did address the 1st Gen for @potoghi so a slight save?

    Does the truck have a sun or moonroof? If so, the drain hose coming down from the roof may have a hole or may have become separated from a connector.

    No drips today. Ran a/c and it’s draining well. Door seals seem okay. I guess either the a/c wasn’t draining before or there is some kind of leak from cowling or door.

    (new headlights on order, clips to put bug deflector back on, and some chrome wheel skins that look like the oem hubcaps).

    Yeah. She needs a good shake down. My truck had about 4 different leaks. Took me a while to shake her down, but she is dry as a bone now. Without describing it all visit my Build Page. Each leak is addressed on different pages. There is also a Leak Thread here at the Top of Page.

    Removing and cleaning all the Door Strips is key, as well. Spray with Aerospace 303 after cleaning and reinstall. Restores and fluffs the Gaskets back.
