Was it running the entire time? If it died, pull all the plugs, and make sure you didn't hydrolock the engine. Have you tried turning it over by hand?

Its clicking because its trying to turn the engine over, but there is too much resistance.

never died and it never fails that after you stop after coming out of a hole and turn the truck off youll be push starting it. the truck was never hydro locked or nothing like that water doesnt even need to be that deep for it to do it

Grease things well after going in mud and water, Change fluids more often too. Personaly am against the stuff but do understand to get from one place to the other you have to cross em sometimes. Dont mob into them either!

Check your battery teminals too, could be part of the problem
