I'm waiting for the rest of the pics of me stuck to be sent to me, but when I have the time today I will post some more of the trail ride. I must say, I did pretty darn good for my first "real" ride, and being the only liberty. I think I broke a few stereotypes, other than getting stuck in the mud a few times

So was your KJ thirsty or something? That's a lot of water. May want to install some extended breathers if this is going to become a habit for you. :wink:

Surprisingly, there was no water in the air filter, it was bone dry. It wasn't so high that it would be been a issue. I really didn't realize how deep, and had no choice anyways. I think when I get my 2.5" lift, I will be doing much better though, I'de even keep my floors dry

I don't know exactly how many did the trail, but heres some pics of the convoy...

Looks a little wet.

The carpet in the passenger side is soaked. If I get enough time today with no rail, I am going to take up the driver seat, and take out the carpet, and let it dry inside.

Seriously, you might want to check/change the oils in your drivetrain ... specifically the differentials. They are notorious for sucking in water.

i have had that entire left corner panel under water before...and once went into a whole to deep and water came over my hood...i mashed the gas and got out quick and filter was still dry...

So maybe there is a problem with the seals on my door? Well, I need to go to the dealer for the regular maintenance, plus a few other things (drivers seat is broken, e brake doesn't really work), so I will mention to them.

Is this something that is "urgent" or can it wait a little while so I get them changed a long with my oil and all that stuff?

you dont want to wait too long, and Im sad to say I waited a couple months but I got lucky bc mine wasnt too bad and it was all bc I dont have my breathers extended but now I dont go into deep water or wont until i get off my lazy butt and extend them

is it 5/16" fuel tubing correct and is that ID or OD?
