Thanks for that guys... I think I will stick with no higher than wheel arch to stay on the safe side. The Air intake for the Hilux is fairly high in the engine bay, which should be expected in a 4wd..

King River @ King Hut Track had water near to top of wheels a week ago. The long weekend coming is the king river at Sandy flat - so I can only assume there is a little more water there considering it has had a few more K's to gather up whatever is dripping out of the mountains.
