What did you do to your Class A MH today???
This is always a fun thread to watch, so I thought I would start one here.

Our rock guard/mud flap was getting pretty worn on the bottom, the rubber wearing away and getting too close to the metal Safari band.
So DW and took measurements and went to the local rubber distributor and purchased a nice piece of 5/16" inch thick conveyor belt that was already sized at 12" inches wide. We had them cut it 95" inches long. When we got it home we took the metal pieces off and used the old flap for a template. Bolted up the top metal piece (hangs on the frame)and then put the "Safari" metal piece on just drilling the two end holes. Once we were satisfied with everything being level, we drilled the rest of the holes and reinstalled all the carriage bolts and nylon-lock nuts.
The fourteen bolts on the "Safari" bracket I replaced with all new carriage 1" by 1/4-20 and all new nylon-lock nuts. Total cost $69 for the rubber and $12 in bolts and nuts. So, now our rock guard is good and hopefully will last another 10 years..
PS..when using box cutter, spray soapy water or Simple Green on the area to cut and blade.
