I've made the whole run, and made it with stock Grand Cherokees as I already stated.
well, I made a run up to Bartlett lake today. All did not fair well. I am certainly going to try my hardest to make it this Sunday.
See, this is how it went: I was crossing the Verde river when BAM, down I go. Hood is under the water, but the trusty explorer makes it to a little more shallow water before the engine dies. Thats right, water lock. A couple of hours later, we get her running, plugs, distributer, air intake manifold and all else is cleaned and dried. I have a lot more to do, such as pulling the carpet out and drying it (4 inches of water inside), getting new dif fluids, repacking the front wheel bearings, and checking all the fluids (hopefully I wont have to flush the trans, power steering and all). One good note: No water in the oil. It could have been a lot worse than it was.
I'll have a thread with pics in the Whoops! forum later tonight when I get the pictures back from Walgreens.
