Title: rear floor pans.
Post by: alipotter46 on July 20, 2007, 05:59:28 PM
My sister from Wisconsin called today and asked me if anyone had problems with the rear floor pans staying wet.  She said the front ones will dry out in no time but the rear stay wet for what seems like forever.  She had heard from someone to drill a hole through them.  I would be concerned about faster rust time.  Any suggestions? She has a Rubicon.

go buy 2 drain plugs drill 2 holes the same size as the front ones. put primer on the cuts, put some paint over the primer and put the plugs back in.

Thats what i would do.
