Leaky High Top

Post by jason.nazen »

Hi All,

Recently I have developed a water leak in our high top. The water sits in the top back shelf as you look in through the tail gate. Any ideas where I should start to look? The matress etc in the high top is bone dry.

I assume that I will need to re-seal the high top, if so is there anyone near to Nottingham that does this type of thing?

Cheers

Jason

Bring it down to us and we will have a look for you and see whats going off I suspect its the rear door seal or rear rain gutter.

Just a quick note to say thanks to all replies and especially Dave and the good lady (apologies never asked your name) for you advice and chat earlier today when I popped over, Club 80 90 is truly a special place. At least I know what I will be doing next weekend!
