Hey there, not quite sure if this is the correct place to put this but I figured its close enough.

Lately I've been noticing that there has been water entering my rear tool chest (the factory Durango tool chest that is accessible from the rear) which has been rusting my tools! (real bummer) I've checked seals, pulled out the liner and checked for cracks in the floor, pinholes in the rear washer reservoir and have not found anything.

I tend to notice it more frequently when the roads are wet, however its not consistent

Anyone know what else it could be?

Thanks!

Update: still have not found the culprit however, I've noticed some faulty weatherstripping, and I'm thinking there could be a leak in the rear washer line.

I'll investigate these tomorrow and see if they lead anywhere.

Drained the rear washer reservoir and it seems like there has been no more leaks. Not completely certain but I'd say that was probably it.

Has it rained since you drained it? was the bottom of the reservoir wet?

It hasn't rained however the roads have been wet from snow melting. The reservoir was wet however so was everything else

Decided to go ahead and buy some rubberized dry bags for kayaking and put my tools in there. It's smaller and more organized, Plus will hopefully keep the water out. In the spring I will investigate it further but for now this will do.

Roads have been super wet due to the spring thaw lately. The tools have been completely dry. There is zero wiper fluid in the reservoir now and since it has drained out i have not had any further issues. so Im pretty confident that it was the rear wiper reservoir after all.
