my driver side front speaker is dead and i have a soggy carpet. Thats the only thing that the water affected. Ill just get some noe front speakers and pull the carpet tomorrow then see if i can find a decent replacement at the picknpull.
Don't go spend money on a used carpet if yours is in good shape. Pull it and take it down to the car wash with about 3 dollars. Power wash it using the soap mixture then go back over it with clean water. Take it home and hang it up. If the weather is good it'll dry out in about half a day. Then spray it with some lysol (to kill any mildew) and reinstall. The best part about this is it'll get rid of any coffee stains at the same time. I do this to every car I buy and it is amazing the crap that gets washed out.

Tail pipe decided to separate itself from the muffler... again. Took it off.
Also noticed gear oil all over the passenger rear wheel and pinion seal looks to be going out too. Time to get me a new rear axle. I hope I get lucky and find a D44.

Got a C8.25 with limited slip. ordered some HD replacement leaf springs since I'll be working down there anyways. Hopefully everything gets here before the weekend.

Everything is here. going to run to O'Reillys to get longer lug bolts, new parking brake shoes, and see about some shocks. Hopefully we'll be able to get the rear completed tomorrow. Then just need to see about putting the control arms in on the front, some V8 ZJ springs, and new shocks.
