I got to work and had to explain 43 times to people what a jeep is for after i took countless questions on why my normally immaculate jeep was so muddy and filthy...
took me no less than 4. 5 hours to clean that pic up again...2 hours just on the interior...
But I cant wait to do that on the 26 th again.
Chris. I REALLY need to see the places you and Tim went after we went our own ways....that looked like more fun.....

yeah they should have heard you when you realized you were stuck I think the 2nd time, you were like o shit oh shit
did you get water inside? I'm talking about when Serge was able to pull you out. so 4.5hrs. I think you need some more practice before the 26th, so you wanna clean mine?
I took the doors off today after I washed the engineand radiator but the rest is still like the pics show, I'm hoping the weather man is wrong and we dont get thunder storms/rain

Hey Tom, I believe Serge should have some video of your jeep. I hope he has some good video of all of us.
Its about time and real good timing that they got the part now
Did you wash your jeep?

you're damn skippy i washed it. the exterior and engine bay are clean as they were before the pines.
the rain last night helped wash some of the interior. i hosed it out saturday night, but, there were still clumps on the inside of the windshield, the roll bar (top and bottom), sun visors, seats, folded top, etc. it got everywhere.
most of it is good to go. just need to finish getting some of it out of the interior and i am all set. radiator, condenser and fan are all nice and clean.

It only took me about 20min to wash my radiator out this time
my interior is SO dusty
and I took the doors off yesterday, lastnight I put the top up cuz I knew it was going to rain and I forgot to pull the plugs, well the floors boards were FULL of water, the front can hold about 2-3inches people definately look at you funny when you are driving a muddy jeep with now doors, top up and its raining

Well my fan took a crapper today, driving home from work overheat came on, opps I forgot to looks to see if I was running hot 
open hood and fan is going so slow its almost going backwards, I fiddled with the wires at the motor and it came back on but not on high. So I may just get a B&M and rig it up so I can shut it off when I find mud

Is this a common thing with the new Wranglers? It just seems like so many of you have had overheating problems, I don't understand why. I'm on my second 2004-2006 Unlimited, one auto and one 6 speed, and I've never had one overheat. I've been beating the crap out of my CJ for 22 years, and it's only overheated once - last year when a 15 year old fan motor gave up. Do lots of guys have this problem, or are you guys just hitting that black Piney mud a little too fast?
