My 1999 jeep wrangler was flooded in Katrina
I'm trying to rebuild it back to what it was. Everyone tells me the motor is fine I just need new electrical harness, starter, battery, and alternator. If anyone can help with telling me what to start first it would help alot!

There, how long was it submerged and how log was it before the fluids were changed after the event? If this is not do ASAP often there is serious damage done to internal components in the engine & especially the transmission, being a manual this is not as critical, have you had the engine drained, plugs out filter changed, and cranked over with fresh oil to get up oil pressure as yet, have the diffs been flushed. And the brake fluid? If none of this has yet to be done, this long after the event, I feel that you will be better of getting a new car, let me know the time frames and extent of damage done.
