Stalling out isn't the problem. It's all the breathers for your axles/transmission/transfer case as well as all the electronics.Hey people... I was wondering what is the max safe water depth a stock sport/sahara can drive through without stalling out. I dont have a lift yet, but I have the 33 rubi tires on. How deep have any of you gone?
What about all the computers? What do you consider "very deep"? There's much more to it than just raising breathers and adding a snorkel. You're gonna have a bad time submarining in a rolling computer.With a snorkel and raised breathers you can go very deep. W/o them, I wouldn't go over the recommended 30".
Not with the JL 'cause I don't have a snorkel yet, but have played in the water with my JKs:What about all the computers? What do you consider "very deep"? There's much more to it than just raising breathers and adding a snorkel. You're gonna have a bad time submarining in a rolling computer.
That is awesome. You have much bigger gonads than me my friend. How well are the door jams seals. Any water in the cabin?A few weekends ago, I plowed through some fairly deep water, as you can see. Upon opening the hood after, it was evident that water got on everything - except inside the air intake. I have an unlifted 2018 Sport, on 33s. Zero issues during and after playing in the water, all electronics are solid. Hope this helps.
I rolled into a old creek bed after a big rain a few years ago. Obviously not in a jl. Thought it would be fine.
Water rolled over top of hood for like 2 seconds .
It fried all the electronics. All sorts of things I never considered.
It was never right again. Traded it after about 6 months and alot of regret.
No water in the cabin at all, gonads were safely sucked way up into my body. My Jeep is still under warranty. If anything fails, I will have my Jeep thoroughly cleaned and delivered to the dealership. Jeeps are engineered and built to ford 30” of water, with no incursion into the cabin and no failure of systems. If something fails while using the Jeep within engineered parameters, it’s on FCA to fix it.That is awesome. You have much bigger gonads than me my friend. How well are the door jams seals.
