Post your Water Crossing Pics!

no offense, just confusion, didnt understand his post haha, what is fouring? 4x4ing? not sure

 

Nothing fancy... or hard for that matter...

 

Lmfao! I was just trying to add a quick comment while on my phone but what I ment to say is u guys should specify whether in 2wd or 4x4 when crossing...
Didn't mean to get your panties in a bunch about a couple slang words like "fouring it"lol
Either way you knew what I meant lol

 

This guy had to hold is breath for awhile. Not me, but thought it was pretty nuts.

^t hat was F'n unbelievable!

 

Was this up Miller Canyon near Silverwood Lake?

 

No this is up Holy Jim Canyon in Orange County

 

mine in the Mojave Desert in CA

 

All I got for now. Didnt have my tires and 5100's on in time for winter, so this will have to do till next winter In Gorman CA last month for a meet. Water barely went to the top of the tire, but it was still fun. Freakin California is no fun. And please excuse the commentary, my little brother is lame

Scraped my tube steps and dust lights on this one, but no serious damage

LOL, not really a water crossing, more like a mud puddle you could have avoided by driving an extra 20 ft but decided to mob through any way for a cool photo opportunity

 

I wonder if this guy really meant to do that?? Im pretty sure if I drove a $100,000+ car, I sure as hell wouldnt do some stupid shit like that! Extreme 4x4, yes, but this is just insane!

 

ya, you're tellin me

 

Yay! I can play.

Couple pics from my vantage point in the "small river"




In Pic below....my ass is about to be stuck in 30 seconds up where the MGM truck is. Water up near the D/S door. D/S rear tire about 3/4 covered in water. It was fun!

 

Ya, I walked it in my waders first to find the path, I just was forgetting about the current push. No breather at the time and some pretty milky rear diff fluid when done..lol...and an axle seal shortly after. Live and learn. I was on my way to the Ishpatina ridge as well, i didn't canoe in but old school compass and mapped it in there from a point on the road. Beauty country. You in Sudbury?

Here's a little crossing, but it was tight, thought I had to loose a side of the box on that rock....definitely lost most of my paint for the rest of the trip. Cheers, DC

 

Great pics!!!

Here are some of my truck:

Only diff breather mod & sliders






This is with snorkel, but not so deep haha

 

Just a little reminder to the water crossing n00bs out here in the interwebz

Worst things you can do to your Tacoma in water:

1) Drive over water doing more then 10mph.

Reason: Well it's plain old tarded. You inject mud and foreign objects into your pulleys, alternator, starter, and just about every wire harness for the simple fact of being 'stupid cool'

I have seen 2 people blow alternators in one day driving fast in water. One was 1st gen. One was 2nd gen.


2) Drive in water over your hood.

Reason: You have a gas engine with more electronics then a super computer from the 90's. You also have an intake LOWER then the hood. So if water is above the hod and intake is below it your sucking water. Pretty freaking stupid IMO. Also water that high is close to the "floatation" point of your truck. This means you loose all traction and go with the water flow.

Now if your not a n00b you may have already addressed the above issues so you can drive under water with a scuba tank for oxygen and be a-ok.

I just LMAO at the pics some post in here. Your truck is literally submerged by law and could be totaled by the insurance co. Hope you guys don't try selling your trucks soon when you have pics on forums of them sunk.

 

FUCKING KILL JOY
GTFO
