HOW LOW CAN YOU GO???????

Watch out for the rear diff vent. It is tucked up in the rear. Don't stop! I think that by moving, you keep an air pocket up there. This is no H1 with the vented drivetrain.

Would be worth the $3 in vacuum line to extend the vents. You can also pick up cheapo 1-way valves and put them on the end to prevent water from coming in. Good in an emergency, but if you bury your rig in water past the vents, it's always best to replace fluids ASAP.

Deepest I've been is about 1-1/2' creek - no bother, big splash, no problems after that.

I did this on my Cherokee, just ran the lines up to the firewall in front and the gas filler cap in back. You could also just get a long piece, loop it over & over, then put in a 1-way valve - as long as you don't sit still too long in the water, the loops will prevent water from coming into the difs (sorta like a P-trap).

For a novice how can I identify the correct lines to extend?

My vehicle may occasionally be attracted to small puddles
