Default Anybody have this Problem too?

Got my XJ stuck last night in a hole that didnt look to bad untill i was in it. I crept out in it to see how deep it was. I know, I know, bad idea. My buddy pulled me out and I tried it two more times. Third time I got about 3/4 of the way through and my serpentine belt slipped off. Oh well. There's always another day.

Anyways, throughout the hole ordeal my windows were completely shut the hole time. but it didnt apear that that was the case whenever i finally got to where I could check out the true damage. What is the deal with XJ door seals. Ill let the pictures do the talking.

My door seals do that too! Not the windows, but at the bottom and front of the doors you start to get mud coming into the Jeep. It only happens to me in super deep mud that hides half the jeep though. Lighter mud just gets in the flat place between the inside and outside where i step.
