Wow that looks bad lol. I had about 4 inches of water in mine and was lucky enough to have the water lower than where the speakers are. Was the water seeping in though your drain plugs or the door seals?

Well, I took my XJ on the freeway at about 75 mph to go to pep boys and it did awesome despite the high winds. Some dumb b**** in a little red focus almost cost me my life though. The driver of the focus decided to jump in my lane without looking or checking her mirrors. She would have run me off the road or gotten herself and me killed had I not reacted properly. Since there was no way I could have swerved at that speed without rolling my Jeep, I had to slam on the brakes. She just continued driving like she was under the influence of multiple drugs (both uppers and downers to be exact) and didn't even notice the near miss she caused. She cut off a ford wheel chair van up the road to get off at an exit. The van being top heavy, almost landed on it's side. Where are the police when you need them?


Now, enough with my traffic stories... I went to pep boys, and got the XJ a new cool looking radio antenna, a blade fuse set, and two rear Jeep diamond plate floor mats to match my Jeep seat covers and front floor mats with the Jeep logo.

Yup.

Joe's my Jeep. He's been in the family for 12 of his 14 years. If I sell him, I've gotta give the fams a chance to buy him from me.

You might have a sweet baby girl Jeep and I'm all for that, but Joe's a dude. We run around roaring that 4.0, playing loud music and hanging out in garages. Dude stuff.

Today, after switching from regular 5w30 to Mobile 1 full synth at 10w30 with the Mobile "High Performance" filter, I overheated 2x driving 180 miles. My pressure's gone from 10psi at hot idle to 9psi... Looking at a sump screen, then oil pump, then new motor if this keeps up! (I've been working down the low-oil-pressure checklist)

Oh, and a front end alignment after new U-joints in the front axles.

Drives straight, but shimmying. Either bearings or tire balance. Start cheap, of course...
