Water Ingress

Of you guys that have had your Jimnys through deep water, where if anywhere have you noticed the water creeping into your cabs?

I would expect the usual spots being door seals, rear arches where the clips punch through from arch trims, handbrake cable grommet, gearshift gaiter(s), holes in the rear floor etc.

Ive been up to the door handles in water and never had any come in. It floats on top of the water rather than letting it in

Small seaps here and there but worst one was the air valve near the rear door , still not figured a way to stop water but keep the function

Maybe replace it with some form of clack valve? Air pressure from shutting doors would open it but water pressure from outside would close it? Or a simple spring loaded version that opens due to air pressure but otherwise it's shut?

That was the only thing i could see working , spring loaded plate with some high density foam for a seal

Mmm thats interesting I forgot about those, there are 2 I think one each side of the tailgate. Whats your handbrake cable seal like mines a big oval hole with no grommet.
