Rear sunroof drains

[nahtnoj]

Mine are clogged. Heavy rain this weekend with the truck parked slightly downhill. Water was collecting in the back of the tracks. How do I get in there to clean them? I can't find any threads that address the rear drains.

Have tried using weed eater cord and can't seem to get mine clear. They're there but hard to see. May have to call roto rooter.

On my FZJ80, I tried to run weed trimmer line but I couldn't get it into the rear drain wholes from the top as I couldn't see the holes. So I tried at the rear of the vehicle with no success, as the line would go up part of the way and stop. Out of desperation....and wet children in the backseat, I ran a small engine siphon pump hose (small black line) up from the rear. I tried to get a tight fit/seal by using my hand to crimp the drainage pipe around the siphon hose. Thinking at first I was going to blow air, but sucked instead. This surprisingly resulted in a quart or so of water coming out and clearing my drainage line.

The drain holes are back there...you just need to keep fishing for them. Here is a thread with some info and pics: https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/sunroof-leak.802143/#post-9168487
