yea but it dosent look like the carpet got all that wet

 

my trunk was a lake.... and it seeped up all the way to the front. thankfully my seats didnt get wet...

anyway... the dehumidifyer isnt working at all. its too cold for them to air dry too they just freeze... idk what to do

 

I like mudding.......in other peoples vehicles! The mud always seems to ruin something when I drive through it. Plugged up radiator, Muddy grit ruined idler pulleys, and above all else The dredded low altitude mud but from the doorsill when I exit said muddy jeep. I enjoy going through it but the repair and cleanup(on my DD) is completely not worth it. Maybe some day down the road when there is a dedicated trail vehicle in my garage but not so much now. A friend of mine just aquired a 96' GC and had wet carpet throughout that wouldn't dry out so we helped her rip it all out. That carpet had a rubber backing on it and would have never dried out on it's own. The moisture was starting to K.O. all of the electronic gadgets in her posh "Limited" GC.

 

Sunk my 95xj 2wd up to the bottom of the seats in nasty red mud. I tried everything to get the water and funk out but had no luck. Ended up going to the local pull-a-part, 20 bucks, a can of carpet cleaner, and a few hours later I had myself some fresh smelling pre-owned carpet.
As far as taking out the carpet, it sucks in a DD. That 6-banger highway drone in a hollow cabin gets old quick

 

luckily it really doesnt smell at all... im honestly just concerned about it drying. i guess next weekend if its still wet ill have to rip the carpets out and keep them in front of the karosine 120000 btu heater in the garage... i really dont wanna have to take them out but if they arent dry by then what choice do i have right? id like to get rhino lining buti have a lot of other stuff on my list first haha
