passenger side plugs
With my TJ I went in too deep water and sucked water in the air filter. I had to revove the plugs and dry it out, before going again.
The JK plugs on the right side (facing forward) look impossible to remove, especially in the field. Has anyone changed them yet?
Hopefully I learned my lesson on water depth, and yes I will eventually get a snorkel, but I still want to know how to change the plugs.

The PM was off topic, that's probably why it was a PM. He saw in my signature I had a steering stabilizer discounect. He wanted to know if it is different from a sway bar disconnect. Yes. The Steering stabilizer disconnect was an Option on the X (standard on the Rubicon). It disconnects the steering stabilizer, which is a long rod that connects the left and right front wheels. The sway bars are separate bars at each wheel. I think I got that right.

I always use some Dielectric Grease in the boots too. It keeps out moisture and prevent the boot from seizing to the plug.
