I pull apart all the electrical connectors that I can reach and give the contacts and seals a smear of Vaseline to keep the water out. 4ft deep I wouldn't advise, especially if the water is moving, a Jimny can float but won't necessarily remain wheels down.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

Thanks for the advice and there's only one place that gets that deep and its not moving water it's just a country lane that gets flooded that I wondered if I would be able to get through seen a defender do it but wasn't sure if the mighty Jimmy would manage it
