We’ve had a couple of gully-washer storms come through the Bay Area and it’s shown me that my coach is not waterproof. The side window rubbers have shrunken - no surprise, so I thought it’d be an easy job to replace the small rubbers and seal up the windows. But it’s not that simple. When I pulled the old rubber off of the passenger side large window I noticed that the glass has slipped down opening a gap (1/16” or 1/8” maybe?) where no gasket will help. It seems I’ll have to remove and reseal the windows. I see Armand and Jim B’s write up on this and I think it’s all I need, but I’m curious as to why the window slipped down. Any pointers would be appreciated.
Also while finishing the headliner I noted a drip above the dinette seat just behind the passenger seat. I could not see anywhere that the leak was coming from however it is exactly under the cap seam. I haven’t paid any attention to others who have resealed the front and rear cap - but again - any pointers would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
