passenger side leak !help!

I've got an '86 4wd and whenever it rains the passenger floorboad gets soaked. I've checked all the seams in the door, windshield, etc. Is there anywhere toyotas generally leak and if so what's the best way to fix it?

i have an 87 and have experienced the same problem but only when i go through the carwash. haha it isnt fun. if you check under the hood where the hood itself is mounted there might be a small crack that will let water through. tell me what you find. =] if that description makes no sense then i can post a picture of what i am talking about for you.

Could be a leak in weather strip, window moldings (side or windshield) or the antenna mount. Well, lots of other places as well, but I would start there.

The water from the A/C being on is from a blocked condensation drain.

The yota windshields are notorious for rusting underneath and developing leaks from rust holes.

YEa, I checked the windshield and the door and they are all dry. My a/c doesn't work. I think the antennae may be leaking. I replaced it a month ago and I sort of jerry rigged it sonow theres a gap showing in the mount.

Please elaborate on the airbox.

there should be a line from the 'airbox' (the box the fan and heater and a/c (if you have it) coils are) under the dashboard that exits the cab and drains somewhere near the frame.
