I had a similar post not too long ago. Maybe this one is clearer.
Could someone snap a pic or take a look at their rocker panel and step plate on their rear doors? I'm trying to determine if the aluminum step plate is too long on mine.
The front part of the step plate overlaps a raised section\joint on the rocker panel, when it seems it should fit flush against it. This leaves a small space between the rocker panel and the step plate for water to collect.
I will pull the door panel and check the rain shield-that'll deal with water coming in at the window, but I'm also getting water in through the foam weatherstrip that surrounds the door, and that's flowing directly on the step plate and pooling between the step plate and rocker panel.
I would go to a boneyard or stop someone around here with an FSJ, but I can go 3 or 4 months without seeing another one, and I've vowed never to go back to the only yard around with FSJ's. Evil parts nazi.
Thanks,
