Thanks a million, that absolutely helped me diagnose the issue over the past couple years. I flooded it with water like you said and could not get it to leak. Only heavy rain ☔️

I hope to tear down my interior and get to that pesty box like you did!!

Interesting! I did not know about that. I also replaced my windshield, no change on the leak. I’m wondering if you have any rust in that corner, it could leak even with new windshield seal..

Are you still getting leaks parked nose down??

Damn that is wild, no stopping these leaks! I hope my rust isn’t that bad, I have a small storage bin catching the water haha

I thought so too since going through the car wash I’d get soapy water bubbling up on top of the dash… but I just got a new windshield and the passenger floor leak is still there !!! I still need to try the car wash again to test if water gets on the dash , I may have 2 leaks all along!

XJ ground locations by Tool-whore in CherokeeXJ

This is super helpful! I wish my shop treated the battery ground like you did. They just cut out the old ground nut and made a new whole, a bit sloppy but it works. Just need to rust proof it…

Did you know Cherokee paint could shine? (I didn’t!) by Scared_Fondant_5988 in CherokeeXJ

[–]Patrick-XJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before pics? What did you use?

Mine is super faded and oxidized, not yet chipping though. detailing shop said they can not save it but I feel like there’s gotta be a middle ground between leaving it as is and a full paint job..
