Hey all, apologies if this is the wrong thread as this is my first post.
I need some advice on what to lookout for/what fluids I should preemptively change as I'm trying to avoid a potentially devastating repair. I'm driving a stock Black Diamond and accidentally veered off-course, getting it stuck in some sand/clay/water and part of the vehicle was submerged no deeper than 24" at the most and I was on an incline/angle (see pictures). I was stuck for about an hour and learned a valuable lesson about having recovery gear in the process. My Bronco is driving fine and nothing broke.
Luckily, the alternator seems fine (no sign of the water level getting that high). I thoroughly washed out ALL the sand from the underside. My rear diff was not submerged, but I think the 10 Speed Auto transmission was to an extent. Take a look at the pics and let me know. I just wanna know if I need to spend a few hundred on all oil changes instead of waiting for something to happen and spending a few thousand. Feel free to ask me any questions, thanks!
