raymowatt@ntlworld.com · Sep 18, 2012

Hi All
I would like to replace the rear crossmember on my 90 300tdi, but I do not have the relevent skills.
Does any one know or can recommend someone in South Hampshire that can do such a job.

thanks all

Highly recommend getting a Pressbrake (blacksheep) rear crossmember. Had one fitted a few weeks ago and it is one seriously fantastic quality bit of kit. It will outlast the rest of my landy by years

.

Would have loved to have had Clive do the work for me, but he was too far away, so he made it and sent it to me. The guy that welded mine on was very impressed with what he had to work with.

You ain't gonna beat pressbrakes craftsmanship, let me tell ya that this dude knows his stuff, if only he was about when the titanic was constructed

He would never have got it in his workshop.
Having said that he does have the Pressbrake bending machine that folded the plates for the Titanic.

Well, I took the plunge and drove to essex, and had Pressbrake fit a new crossmember to my 90........... what can I say, simply fantastic.

If you need one, go here, the product is unbeatable, the equipment clive has is second to none, and his skills as an engineer are what makes this country worldbeaters.

Good poduct, nice price , great bloke

Depends what model ie 90 or 110 what engine td5 or non td5 and the condition of the chassis .

Luckily i've got one fitted to the 90 i've just bought.
Looks like it will outlast the rest of it!!
