I have two Xj's a red 94 That has a 4.5" lift and 32" tires that is now my designated crawler and a 92 limited that today I put a 2" lift with 3" rear leaf springs from the red Xj that sagged to 2"and 2" coil spacers, new ball joints, tie rod ends, track bar, shocks, steering box, and soft 8 steel wheels with 235/75/15 Goodyear Wranglers for my dailey driver. Oh also new bendix brake rotors with ceramic pads and the stronger sport front axles I got from the junk yard. Man am I tired!

Installed my rebuilt 703 injectors. Removed and painted my valve cover, that will be put back in tomorrow morning. Started my Spectre Cowl Intake that I will finish tomorrow. And installed my Putco Headline Harness. With all the rain today, id say thats pretty good.

Picked it up after swamping it. A couple weeks and more than a few bucks later. Don't ask.



However... I had bailed it out...then used newspapers...then kitty litter...then a fan running for a few days... and just to be safe(r) I s---ton of lysol. When I got it back....I thought effing great. Now it smells like kitty litter and mildew.



but no.... this is the review I just posted on amazon.com to warn others:

So...I was out 4 wheeling and decided to try one of the water obstacles at the offroad park. Mistake. Got swamped. But got out--after getting flooded.

I used news papers, cat litter, and good old bailing to get out as much water as I could. But afterwards I still had a funky smell, like mildew mixed with kitty litter. Great.

Now this isn't a story about about the Lysol Spring Waterfall Scent took care of that odor. Oh no. I sprayed this stuff all over inside hoping I'd stave off any mildew. And maybe it did. But that mildew/cat litter smell turned out to not be what I thought. I bought a couple cans of this Lysol because I figured I had a big task ahead of me. And also it was 2 for 1 on sale...

I had one can left over. Sprayed some shoes that had gotten stinky and then realized -whoa--there it is...that SMELL. So as it turns out what I was smelling in my car was NOT mildew+cat litter... it was the Lysol. Or what Lysol imagines is what a spring waterfall smells like.

That should sum it up for you. After opening up my car what I thought was mildew & cat litter was actually the smell of this lysol. You have been warned.

The best way to cleanout from being swamped is with a wet-dry vacuum and soapy water or the garden hose.
Flush it with water and suck it at the same time with the vac. Works Great.
