Ah the Spanish one I'd heared about that but thought they'd stopped making 'em - seem I was mistaken. Way too dear at 700 euros though. I would think that anyone who could afford that would be in a more expensive tratter anyway.
 
keep going through water at that speed and soon you will suck the water into your engin and then BANG your engine will be gone be a sensible 4x4 driver

Camber bolts are available, to correct to camber angles.

Fitted a 2" lift to mine, with 4 camber bolts (one on each corner) and a 4 wheel alignment afterwards, and it drives fine ;)

Where would be the best place to go through the inner wing when fitting a snorkel? On my 05 1.8, it would involve a lot of work; there is so much stuff in the way! However, if the battery was fitted elsewhere, it may just work!
 
Fitting a snorkel on the engine and breathers on the auto/manual gearbox, IRD and rear diff are good ideas. But don’t forget it’s the sand/clay/silt in the water that causes most of the damage. Bearings and oil seals have all suffered on mine when going through water. Air con compressor clutch bearing and drive shaft oil seal both went. Hence why I don’t go through the deep stuff.
