I was attempting to do a little work on her today in between hail storms and monsoon like rain, but didn't get a whole lot accomplished.


The box in the bed has some leaks. There were some things of desiccant in there, but those had spilled some time ago and made a huge mess, lots of corrosion and lots of rust from the various tools that were left in there. I emptied the box out and scrubbed it out and cleaned it up the best I could. The rubber seals and gaskets on both latches are shot and letting water in, it also looks like water is seeping in through the bolt holes where it is bolted down to the bed. The bolts are super corroded so I'm going to swap them out and throw some silicone on the new ones to seal those leaks. I ordered some replacement latches, so I'll swap those out and hopefully take care of those leaks as well.
