I bet it looks worse than it is! The biggest danger would have been to have the engine running when it submerged. Water in a combustion engine does less than pleasant things to connecting rods...

However make sure you change all the fluid including the diffs. You never know what would have seeped in through any vents.

If it started up and ran well then you are probably going to be ok! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Next time though a better/safer method is to tow it right out and home so you can disassemble and clean prior to starting. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

When I called the recovery company's around, they were all "busy". Apparently someone drove off a cliff about 10 miles north of where I was at on the highway to Las Vegas so they needed the help more than I did. The town I was in was real small. Kind of one of those towns where everyone is related in some way shape or form.
