i wouldnt worry about moving you alternatior up if you are wading 4ft i would be more worried about my winch motor and internals.

buy a boat?
i would fit the alt on the other side of the engine above the exhaust manifold, but alot of other stuff is going to suffer from water ingress

why would you spend a lot of time in 4 feet of water???.
like the others say, its slowly killing yor truck. in the suzuki handbook it states;;,,, the vehicle is not actually designed to run under water etc, then goes on to say,, as a basic guide your suzuki 4x4 will drive easily through water up to the level of the bottom of the doors.
