Rattler's 90 Chassis Swap

This site contains affiliate links for which LandyZone may be compensated if you make a purchase.
A slightly better change of plan as we are getting our new richards chassis on sunday through a different supplier so looks like we will be busy over christmas :D
 
Friday son andy replaced the rusty tub side cappings, yesterday i spent the day making up chassis to tub plates for when bolting the tub onto the chassis and today andy has gone to collect our new chassis :D
 
Right i have mastered the art of posting pic's on the land rover uk forum ( readers restorations ) but for some reason i can't post pic's on here so if any of you want to look please help yourself whilst i try and sort it out on here :(
 
Not managed to sort pic's out yet but will once i get chance, anyway yesterday we turned the chassis round and rested it on blocks ready for fitting the axles at the weekend :)
 
Some pic's of the s2a we bought last week
