    Ehh not really haha. Never really do huge water crossings. I bought mine for a few different reasons.

    1. Air Ram
    2. Cooler air
    3. Looks badass
    4. Better filtration
    5. Looks badass

    Thanks man! My buddy Lee took the photo! He’s. Great photographer

    It's not. Truck has been way deeper (I use it for guided hog hunts) with water flowing over the wipers. But that's the deepest I have ever been stuck. It's played hell with a lot of electronics, but the only thing that failed was the throttle body, apparently they are not sealed good from the factory (forgot the company, starts with a D I think). The new part number is supposed to supercede it. Died when water got to that and the spark plugs, the seals on the coils are useless for anything more than a water hose washing..Wouldn't crank for hours afterwards. Finally got it running and drove an hour home. Had to clean air bag computer, ECM, Steering angle sensor, all three flashers, brake switch, and flush power steering (they are not water proof either) Runs good now though

    Deep water mods are snorkel, and all gear boxes, 4wd motor breathers, and gas tank breather are ran to the top of the fire wall, and di electric grease in all the plugs you can find.

    Damn, you guys got balls with some of these water crossings, even though I have the dif breather mod, I try to stay away from anything higher than the bottom of the wheel rim.

    I should probably get a dif breather but somehow I have had zero issues so far.

    It's only really necessary if your gonna drive through water a whole lot. Water over the axle once every 6 months doesn't warrant a diff breather. Every other weekend....Yeah better do it. just remember, the transmission and transfer case vent to the top of the transmission, only about 8 to 12 inches above the level of the rear diff, that would be the next point of entry.
