so pretty much got really really stuck whole front end was underwater and a 6inch deep pool in corner of the truck turned it off before it started sucking water but i know something needs work after being in that for 6 hours any help would be great

check all of your diff fluids and trans fluid if your a manual trans for water. Pull your wheels and clear the mud out of the calipers and drums before it hardens.

if your cv boots are cracked there is a good chance to got water and mud in those as well.

hahahahahaaha a hole that size deserves to be checked for depth before you go through it.


make sure you dry out the inside of your truck so it doesn't rust.

just the normal diff fluids, tranny fluid, t-case fluid.

soft mud can make a hole twice as deep when a truck is put on it vice a stick.
