Default What is the lowest componet that will stop the engine

Hi All

Been working away on understanding deep water or even shallow water fording in CMPs. Surprised that no one seems to have a full manual on this topic.

Started by doing some basic measurements on my Pat 12 C60L which I will share shortly once have them in a format to share. In going through and listing the various components, their height off the ground, susceptibility water entering and most important would water entry stop the truck in short order.

Was very surprised that the first two versions of this list I missed a big one that would stop the truck in fairly short order. Of the would stop the truck it was also the lowest being only 33 inches up.

Any guesses as to what it is?

Cheers Phil
