m chassis with a diamond s hood ?

[Hairy Mark]

how are you guys keeping the snow from coming in the engine compartment from the space between the bumper and the bottom of the hood. i got a whole bunch in there from the fluff we were in this weekend and would like to know what everyone is doing for it.

Hey Mark

You come back and ride with us in Cen Cal. I am sure you won't have any "fluffy pow" problems here!

I riveted a piece of aluminum that I cut to fit real nice including the split in the bumper.(thanks co logger) Then I had to glue a strip of foam around the bottom edge to make for a total seal. I'll put up pics next time I have the camera around the sled.

Not the best pic, but the only one I have on hand. Look real close and you can see the top of the aluminum piece. We riveted the aluminum with the rivet for our front hood latch strap.

I think you should use double sided duct tape, probably the good Gorilla brand and then just rub up against it to give it a good hair covering... With that covering the snow won't dare to get through.

Love ya man!

Here are the pics I took today of the aluminum piece. It's pretty easy to do and well worth it.
