Think I forgot to post this up on here. Snorkel and rack. I did make a bumper out of free steel I had around but doesn't hold my winch so its just temporary recovery.

IMO a cowl snorkel is your best/cheapest option. Check out my design (this design won't work if you have ABS.).

yea but either only work good if you seal everything else off, which 99% of people do not. you can move the intake but that don't protect electronics and alternator and such.

electronics are resilient to water, especially with dielectric grease packed into the connections.

Your engine internals however, are not.

Differential, transmission, and distributor vent extensions are strongly encouraged.
