Keeping it dry

How can I prevent the water from getting into the motor when it's raining?

Hi, Beau -

I'll let Paula from Ampmobile Conversions in Lake Wylie, SC tell you what THEY do to keep the rain out.

She says:
"We put a splash shield under the motor, so water is OK as long as you're not driving through large puddles (or streams)!
We have one car in the mountains that has to ford a stream to get home.

The shield is black matting like used for a floor runner (heavy plastic) to keep some of the water out and keep rocks from slinging up into the motor."
