I would take the cutout and add small hinges, and add sizable air filter and door will have a small spacer to keep filter in place, with rubber seal around all edges. like that water block idea too.

Excelente video, tengo un Cherokee Classic 2000 con este problema ( filtra agua al interior ). Ahora, por a tu video, veo cuál es la causa. Gracias por mostrar tu trabajo para resolver el problema. Saludos desde Argentina, y nuevamente gracias por subir el video.

That was a great fix. I had a 1992 cherokee 2 door. I wish i still had it. I employeed a bit of mechanical jiu jitsu against my 1992 f150 recently. I was getting water on the passenger floorboard, so i drilled a hole in the floor 😂. Cheers

Creo que es la mejor explicación y solucion para ese problema. Yo lo intenté sellando solamente y el problema continuó. Voy a tratar nuevamente. Gracias.

I tried this exact same thing but couldn't get my hand over the cold air intake to get to the fender side, didn't think of cutting it down. What was that tape that you used?

@RightOnJonCrane 6 ай бұрын

Right On! 🙌 Yes that helped to cut it down. A good tip is to blow out the drain holes close to the fender when you are there. This repair fixed the problem. No more wet floor and I’ve had some heavy rain 🌧️. The tape is butyl window flashing tape made by Vycore! Very sticky. Good to put down with a heat gun. Thanks for watching!

This fix worked great! No leaks. Also a good tip is to blow out the drain holes in the corners so the water can get out. My passenger floor is nice and dry and I live in WA state where it rains all the time! 🌧️

@highwayxj9397 3 ай бұрын

Is there a correct way to do this without cutting?

@rawbacon 10 ай бұрын

Should be good for at least another 20 years now............This reminded me of a car I had where the AC condensation drain got clogged and every time I whipped around a corner on a hot day I'd get about a pint of ice cold water directly on my foot.

A great video, thanks... How were your results? My '00 is wet on the DRIVER'S side, and I've been having minor electrical problems. Do you think it could be leaking from THAT side of the canyon? Or maybe the water is traveling across? Anyway, thanks for the suggestions... the job looks a bit scary.

Check the fuse box. They often leak from behind it.

After trying this fix, it didn't work for me. Spent weeks searching and finally located the leak. It was in the bottom corner of the windshield seal on the passenger side. The hole was visible and I filled it with a shot of silicone. It was allowing water to drip onto the inside of the firewall. Hopefully this might help someone else.

Yes I’m thinking that’s where mine is coming in also! I noticed that in the video here his had stainless trim around the windshield where mine doesn’t have that at all. Mine is a 97’ so maybe that was changed in the design. The thick rubber mat that covers the entire firewall is making it kinda tough to really see where the issue is but my windshield seal has shrank for sure and at the corners it almost appears to be a perfect spot to seep in both at the top-right where the drip-rail gutter can funnel it right into the top corner…or bottom right where it all comes to a point 🤦🏻‍♂️! Love this Jeep but this swamp-ass floorboard+sour/mildew smell is for the birds! My carpet has been out for a month now!

The repair worked great! No leaks. I think it’s important to make sure the drain holes are not clogged. I should have pointed that out better in the video. Mine had pine needles in them! Thanks for watching! Right On! 🙌
