Default ideas to protect rover from hurricane

For those of you who don’t know there’s hurricane lane already crossing Hawaii’s path. Hitting Kaua’i tonight/ tomrw morning. I’m moving Wolf to an open field and crossing my fingers if sh*t gets bad. But parts rover is staying put.

Any ideas how I could protect it during the hurricane? Only thing I honestly really care about at this point is the windshield haha.

Big tarp run ropes underneath with a piece of plywood on the windshield under the tarp. Make sure the plywood is solidly secure you "should" be fine.

If you are worried about flooding not much she is going to get wet

Did an oil change on the 03 and greased anything that needed it. The Rovers North drag-link and tie bar showed up today...so, they will be going on the 01 soon.

Not today but.. Tomorrow i will probably be swapping out alternators Running AC, stereo and lights i was seeing upper 12's/ low 13's on my UG. I had cleaned up all the grounds a few days earlier and that made a big difference but now its back to where it was..

I can test the output of the alternator with a voltmeter across the + of the alt and the - of the battery, right?

^^^looking good^^^

l've got the same tires on my 01, about 10K so far...and truth be told...they are wearing pretty good. Actually, to good. Was hoping they'd be bald by now, so l could get the 285/75's. Funny that you mention the mounting, took mine to two different places before they could get it done, and all of them struggled. They blamed it on the rover double safety bead rim, though, not the tire.
