What did you do to your Rover today?

[LaneRover]

She was in fact tinkering under the hood/bonnet (she is half English). Sometimes I cannot pull her away from the truck. Just having her in the cab provides at least 45 minutes of entertainment while I get things done. I just need to get her to stop putting things in the tailpipe!! I however made floor mats out of the rubber flooring they use for workout and exercise floors. They came out pretty good.

Its like she is looking at you with despair upon finding that you used an aftermarket part!

Its more a situation like..... What's it worth to not tell Mommy what you bought this time!!! Best part is Mommy and the little one are off to the U.K. in 2 weeks. Luckily my daughters clothes do not take up much room in the suitcase therefor she can bring back lots of parts for Daddy!!!

So after 6,000 miles with out wipers I finally cut a check for a new wiper motor. I also took the track apart and loaded everything with grease(per RN tech document) and installed new rubber on the arms. Fixed the washer pump and filled with Rain X washer fluid.
Of course it's a huge improvement over hanging my head out the window but I was actually impressed with the performance. It's nothing like the performance of a modern system but after hearing so many people bash the wipers my expectations were low. I actually made this repair about 4 months ago so I've been through a fair amount of snow as well. I wish you could flip the wipers up so ice and snow doesn't freeze to them overnight. May be I can modify the arms...haven't looked into that yet.
If your wipers truly suck try loading the track with grease, mine was bone dry. That rain X washer fluid is worth the extra money.

That's a handsome young mulch helper...

600 lb+ of mulch in a 2.25....You topping out at around 25 mph?

[Apis Mellifera]

I was able to maintain about 55mph, and didn't attempt much more. Two weeks ago I carried 30 40lb bags of top soil. That weight I noticed! Found out the brakes weren't up to it also so I replaced the MC and decided to limit the load. There's 35 bags there. I could have fit in 5 or 10 more, but why be daft?

Is this part of the new 'braking protocol'?

Your boy Appears to have wheels AND flames on his boots. Is there rover symbolism
in this?

[martindktm]

Flames must be from the leaking oil of the Rover not the speed...
