Hey Folks,
After all the resto work I've been doing on my '98 Ranger, I still find water on the floor at rear. So I took the door off and after removing all screws it popped-off rather easily. What it was sealed with was 3/4" weatherstripping, the peal and stick kind, light gray, so me thinks it was closed cell. There was water on some edge surfaces of the door so I suspect that it had been removed by previous owner who used the wrong stuff to reinstall. A rotted floor is what began the restoration in the first place, so I must get this corrected before laying down any flooring. I should use Byutl tape or rope caulk, correct? Please chime in soon - and Happy New Year to all.
