My carpets are getting soaked when it rains. Does anyone know of a known trouble spot on a 97 Ram 2500? I don't want to pull out the interior and get the water hose.

Yes that is a problem with the 1997 Ram, my aunt has the same ram and they discovered that the leak was in the rear window, i think the top corner of the passenger side.

The windshield is also a possibility, especially if it has even been replaced.

I have a 97 Ram 1500 and had that problem on the drivers side. Turned out to worn door pins and bushings in the drivers door. I bought the pins and bushing from my local Advance, but they didn't work. I tried all the parts stores, Autozone, NAPA, etc. None of them had the right ones. Ends up that Chrysler has you over a barrel on this. They don't have replacement pins, and bushings. You have to buy the entire hinge(around $90.00) to repair this problem. Hope this helps.
