If you open your beds after towing in the rain and find no evidence of water on the canvas you need to look elsewhere. Being that yours is a 2002, I'd suggest looking at every roof seam, every seam on the front, and all the windows. Even a small area of dried caulking can let water in.
Our old hybrid developed a small leak in the front. I would find small amounts of water in the front cubby hole area after towing in the rain. Of course I thought the bed seals were leaking. Nope, it was a 1/2 inch section of dried, shrunk caulking on the "belt line" molding, 6" below the bed hinge, on the front of the trailer where 2 sections of fiberglass wall joined together. How I discovered it was by having my wife spray water with a hose on the front until I discovered where it was leaking.
Also water creeps and then pools up. It may be coming from a source you're not even considering.
