  • I was getting lots of water coming into my 1989 jeep cherokee xj after it would rain. Think this issue has been going on for a while seeing how much rust the water has caused. In this video we do a water test with the hose to see where the water is coming into the cabin of the jeep. Once we find out where its coming from we fix the issue. Hopefully this video can be helful to someone else who is having water coming into their jeep.

    This is the kind of care many Cherokees need but don't get. Good on you for tearing apart the interior and stopping the rust in its tracks

    My brother has a 95, and I have a 96. Both had the water leak attributed to the bushing around the antenna. Lots of silicone sealant solved that problem.

    Great places to check. I have completely sealed off my cowl area to rule that out, and it still leaks when parked in the rain. Just a bit on the passenger side, much more on the drivers side from that same general area. Will be a project for next summer when temps stay above freezing. Right now I just keep an old towel on each floor and change them as needed. Carpet is already removed.

    The cherokee is going to be mint when you are done! Good job!

    My passenger side leaks around the same spot... I'm gonna have to check the antennae plug.

    Did you ever figure out the leak in the rear?

      I think so. Not 100% sure, but I just finished putting a new rubber seal on the rear hatch and used a bunch of clear exterior window caulk to seal everything up. I also shimmed the rear hatch up a little as I think mine is pretty warped from the florida sun. Will keep you updated on how it turned out
