Leaky Sunroof
I have a 98 XJ with a sunroof. In heavy rains, it has been leaking in the front-center part of the sunroof. It then seems to pour out under the sun visors when I turn a corner. I have cleaned the tracks and seals and it's still leaking. Any ideas?

if you are sure its coming from the sun roof then either a bad seal on the glass or a bad seal between the track and roof.
Im not real experienced with jeeps or sun roof's but if it were me I would take the headliner out and hit the roof with a garden hose to try to locate exactly where it is coming from.You may then be able to seal it.

Clean the drain tubes at the cornes of the sunroof. A sunroof is nothing more than a controlled water leak, not a problem as long as the drains are clear.
