Water in rear quarter panel -Fixed !!

So I知 doing my rear shocks yesterday and discovered water in my rear compartment behind the right wheel( under the fuse box). I知 was like nooooooo!!
First thing I did was check all the water outlets on the tail gate but they were fine. So I took a jug of water and poured it on the truck with the rear door open and let it run down the channel by the weather seal and over the lights.
It seems the bolt that holds the little adjustable stoppers for the rear door was hand tight !! The water was dripping right from there, so I took a 32mm ( I believe it痴 a 30 but I didn稚 have one) and tightened it up!
Voila the leak is now gone !!! I値l probably changed the runner seals on the outside of it next week. I値l attach some pics later
