Has anyone ever added wheel well liners to their tractor?
I'm thinking about custom cutting some rubber sheet, the solid stuff you can buy to line your tool box drawers with (about 1/8" thick), to fit the inside of my wheel wells on my BX2680. My tractor is brand new with only 3 hours on it and I'm thinking adding wheel well liners now, while everything is still clean, might pay dividends down the road. I'm hoping the liners would keep the snow and dirt and mud away from the transmission and hydraulic systems that are under the seat as well as the controls on the under side of the fender.
If anyone has done this, I'd be curious to hear how it turned out and if you found it beneficial. My biggest question mark right now is how I'd fasten the rubber sheet to the upper part of the fender well. I can fasten the sheet near the wall of the tire with either zip ties or existing bolts in the frame, but the piece that is around the face or tread of the tire needs to be fastened to the outer edge of the fender some how and the only things that come to mind are plastic automotive retainers or plastic rivets.
Anyone have any ideas?
