Re: water leak into footwell 97 wrangler
Mine has the door seal problem. When it rains and i'm sitting still I can
watch it drip in at the bottom of the door frame. Plus my soft upper door
will fill with water in the bottom seam too. All this is on the passenger
side in my 97 TJ. Luckily my Husky liners just reach over far enough to
catch the drip. Draining those without dumping it on the floor is a real
joy though. At one point it didn't even catch it all, and I had to pull the
drain plug to let 2 inches of standing water drain out. That was after a
record rainfall though.

Common problem...can't believe all these replies and no one hit the
real source! Check the heater box firewall seal right after you see
water on the passenger floor...it will be wet! Remove the battery to
access and use plenty of silicone sealer. NovaTJ
