You can go alot deeper than I can, with your 3" lift. I have been in water up to the bottom of the doors. I would be very careful and go slowly. Realize you can flood the engine, and our trucks run via a computer. Water is hard on bearings too.

I had my 95 XLT in 0ver the tires. Be sure all the grommets are sealed. My'ne weren't and the driver side carpet & floor mat were soaked. Took a long time to dry.

You can go as deep as you want, 2ft, 3 ft, heck, even 50ft of water! You may not be able to drive it under 50ft of water, but you CAN go that deep!!

Whatever you do, have fun, be careful and welcome to F150online!
