Ok someone has had to deal with this. Common to our climate up here we have lots of standing water on every trail, you know 2'- 4' deep. And no matter what I have done I fill the floor of my rig with water/silt/mud. Well what do you do about the rear blower on the floor? right now I wrap a huge bag around it and zip tie it off, but it's a pain. I like it back there for my boys so I don't want to take it out? Has anyone made a cover or...

Thanks in advance.

Ya need a heater, I think I have an extra laying around from a donor rig. And sure I'm up to a little wheelin'. I usually go up to Evans' Creek or out to Belfair for the fun is there some place close to you that you go? And hey... enough Puyallup jokes, most people can't pronounce it anyways, besides you don't want me to start making Eastside jokes do ya... plus don't you feel wierd driving around with all those Beemers and Land Rovers about??

But... I don't want to get rid of the heater just save it.

well if you do have a spare rear heater im sure my passangers would engcourage me to buy it! Ive never been to evans creek area sure would like to see some new places though! I usually go around here a little in monro and somtimes up in North Bend area. and as far as the beemers go i just ignore them and run them over!!!! speaking of damn eastsiders, have you seen duvall lately? Gone are the days of the blinking stop light in the center of town, its been infested with yuppies and safeways, and now three strip mall things, its horrible. Well as far as wheeling goes, i need to lengthen my driveshafts, which i hope to get done next week and then just finalize the disc brake stuff so if all goes well i would be up for a mid march run. Know any other local cruisers pigs that would go? We could try to make a little northwest crusier round up..

this is a easy one

first go spring over
second get 44 inch tires.
third give it more gas before hitting
the mud holes.

I raised the rear heater up about 6 inches. Had a creek I had to cross on some ranch property that was about 3 inches deeper than the floor pan, Never had any problems with shorting out the motor
