    Your breathers for front diff, gearbox and transfer case shouldn't have got any water in them if they were still the factory setup (up into the passenger side front guard) unless the water got in some other way?

    Could n't go back the way we came, so just had to press on. I didn't get stuck, although the Old Trol was wading bonnet deep in the muck for ages. But thanks for your judgement, mate
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    Did water come out when you drained the front diff and gearbox?
    I've had water over the bonnet a lot of times and haven't had any get into the front diff or gearbox. The breathers are fairly high up from factory. Are yours connected properly?
