During a recent trip I was caught in a HEAVY rain with extremely strong winds and discovered water dripping in the passenger side where windshield header seals to soft top.
Today I unfastened the soft top from the windshield and found the original Header Opening Seal (55716512 AE) had debris on the top sealing surface and the overall seal was quite weathered.
I thoroughly cleaned the surface with 303 Aerospace Cleaner/Protectant and then ordered a new original Header Opening Seal (55716512 AE).

You might look into replacing it. I've got a new header and lower windshield seals going in this week.
The new Mopar header seal is on order; cleaning the seal surface is until the new one arrives.
Discovered the 55176512AE was superseded by 55395101AC.
Tons of water from snow runoff, and it rained for 2 days, but the trails opened so off I went. So. Much. Mud. What a nightmare to clean, never again.
I saw this Jeep at a local used car dealer while riding around today. $15,995 with 33,800 miles. Carfax says it was local all its life.

Are you implying they make my 33's look small?

Fender clearance was real important at various times in history.

We got out for breakfast overlooking the coast and a drive through the Back Bay for a bit of Kayak recon.
Took the time to finally relocate my amplified external speaker for my GMRS mobile. This is still temporary until I decide on a better speaker and better mounting solution, but it has been strapped to my sub box for the past year, so this is a definite improvement. Should be much easier to hear at highway speeds and with the music cranked up.
It's khaki metallic. Car dealers don't ever seem to know that. I've had two that color.
