took about 3 hours to pull the plugs, get the water out, and get it refired. It started though! 😀 It runs like absolute garbage, but i made it home. Tomorrow: oil change, differential fluid change, transfer case fluid change, new plugs, wires, and whatever else I find wrong. Now, i'm going to drink :beer:

I guess we all have our "moments". we have all done dumb things... i had fun the 2 minutes we were driving into the park.
But, when wheelin, ya gotta expect anything. it just comes with the "sport". I still love our Grand Cherokee and would never want to get a different trail rig!

Jeep Girls Do It In The Mud!
 
That's why you need a snorkel 🙂 There's a regular Jeep Cherokee that I always see in town that has one. Whether he actually needs it or it's just for poser value I can't say.
 
Must ev been a crackgead like the PO of mine. Ive found lots of bits of Hillbilly engineering all around it.

One special bit.
He welded the shackles to the frame, and the welds were all boogery at that. God was he dumb.


EDIT

Not as if I have a big thing against jeeps or anything, as they are good wheelers but I have to get some sort of anti jeep sticker, just because of everyone complementing me on my nice 'j@@p"
 
My favorite "got stuck offroading" pictures always have "the girl." She's always just sitting there, and you know what she's thinking: She's thinking, "I knew that was a bad idea. . . Dumbass!"
 
My friends wife did something similar in a Tahoe. 😀 He wasn't very happy.

Then there's a guy at work, he had a souped up Civic with the air intake down by the radiator in front, was going down the road after a heavy rain, hit a puddle....locked the engine and threw a rod. His car was yellow BTW, he became known as the Capt. of the yellow submarine.
