Water Leaking in around Passenger Door
I just spent over an hour pulling front and rear carpet and getting out over a gallon of water in the floor of my JK. I did find the passenger door sill out of track on the top and it looks like that is where the leaking is from. We are supposed to have more storms tonight so I should be able to tell if that didn't fix it. There is no carpet in it as its all hanging out in my kitchen with a fan on it drying.
Anyone else think of something else that could be causing it? Any other suggestions?

I had a similar problem with a puddle on my passenger side. It was coming from the ac unit. When I drove and made a sort of hard turn I would be able to hear a swishing sound since there was so much water being held in there.

I had this. The channel over the windshield drains to sides. It got under the soft top and dripped in on the arm rest. Got everyone that rode with me wet. I installed after market soft top from a "banned" supplier and it ahs not leaked since. I did find the problem was from the widsheld channel coming out on the sides and under the top though if you want to look there.

when I had an issue with my freedom tops actually retaining water the dealarship replaced my carpet under warranty.. something you may want to look into. i wouldnt mind having a spare carpeting set... one for daily use.. one for... collecting mud.
