I F’d Up

I figured the floor mats would have washed themselves clean during the submersion. Nice job on getting it all put back together.

 

I wish they would have! I think they got more dirt on them. I still have to hose out the bed as it still has silt and scum in it.

 

How did your rear diff oil look?

 

I’m about to go look now. Back was too messed up to look yesterday.

 

As new as the day I bought it! Man I hate that smell though!

 

Good to hear. I've seen those one way breathers mess up more than people would think.

 

The tools are fine but I get better results with two very thin putty knives.

 

Did you clean the fuel wires by the driver side kick panel, along with the airbag wires?

 

Anyone here ever used a home dehumidifier inside, shut the doors/windows, run it a few days. I have 3500sqft one I use on my jeep and it seems to work better than the air out method.
Just an idea, my seats always mildew/mold and stink.

Good luck.

 

When I flooded my truck I did not use a dehumidifier. I just had my truck idle for about 4 hours with the heater blasting. It fixed the smell.

 

They were clean luckily.

 

While I haven’t used a home dehumidifier, I did take out seats, carpet, and padding. Dried carpet and padding indoors. The seats never got wet. I did use dehumidifier stuff called damp rid. While it removed a lot of moisture, it was way too slow. It’s easier to just remove everything and let it sit in the sun and then air dry in the house over night.

 

That's good. Mine was starting to corrode when I got to it.

 

I got very lucky this time. I’m hoping to never do that again because I’m afraid my lucky will have run out by then.

 

Definitely haha. You got any pics of when your taco decided to become a boat? Here's mine

 

That doesn't look too deep, definitely not over the fender intake, what caused you to stop?

 

No pics. I was more worried about driving it out.

 

I got stuck on a rock on my LCA and my bumper.

 

Yeah I got you
