Oh, I’ll see what that’s like when I get there haha! Made some panels to reattach the wheel arches to the inner wings and tacked them on today. Structural integrity is slowly returning! I’ve been using gasless MIG wire for this. I’ve not used...

Nah, both the pipes have snapped off right where they come out the pump body so there’s nothing to push a pipe onto.

Offside had been repaired but only finished in primer. The result was it was rusty and the repair around the bottom wasn’t too nice most of it was usable. I cut out what I didn’t like which also gave me access to epoxy the mount area. Lots of...

Always an awkward repair but more so when you’ve got to ensure it doesn’t knock out your lining up across the rest of the repairs. Test fitting is a must. Takes longer but I don’t want to find I’m out on my boot floor which would then knock on to...

That’s one corner complete and my gas empty. Need a top up!

Got down to it today for a bit. Started by wire brushing and painting chassis top re in Bilt-Hamber. This stuff is what I’ve used for my Mini and it’s pretty good, goes purple then black as it works on the rust. Then made some little panels to...

What you after? Those are just sill caps that go on each end. The z is literally a 2 inch wide z that spans the floor rear door and goes ontop of the cross member. I’ll get you some pics in morning if you need more These tie your arch to the...

Z sandwiches to this lip via spotwelds

I’m not sure if they’re the end pieces, the bits DippyPud was on about earlier is what I was wondering about. https://froggatts.co.uk/product/z-plate-repair-panel/ Also is this the right z piece?

https://froggatts.co.uk/product/sill-end-caps-and-floor-supports-discovery-1-2-and-range-rover-classic-right-hand/ Are these the tapered bits? What is the Z panel which ties the boot floor to the rear crossmember?

No!!!

Where are you based? Did you buy the above? If your not miles away I’m happy to come and help you break back if it one weekend

Ah thats kind of you! I think I’ve found my mojo again now. I’m planning on having a bloody good crack at it when I’m on half term last week of May, that should give me time to get stuff done. Been really busy with other commitments (3 other...

More alignment work. What a tricky job that was. I made a z plate for the rear floor and rivnutted the seat nuts in. From there it got tricky! You can see why. You’d think the z plate was bent. It wasn’t - the floor rise was. So I made a...

I haven’t made any progress on it for a while, lots of “real life” getting in the way unfortunately. I’m actually considering selling it and letting someone else continue the work… possibly around £1500…? Don’t know if I’m ever going to get...

after fixing the two bits I cut out, I got the trapeze section welded up

Time to check everything lines up! Also repaired the pillar and neatened it right up. I’m going to chop the bottom off other side and repeat the process as it’s so much tidier and I hate it when this area looks scabby. You really notice it on...

Tying it back in now on N/S

In another thread, I said make sure you slap grease behind your strut mounts. Here’s why…

A bloody fiddly job. Angles, twists and tiny pieces. You can see that the crossmember is supposed to be sandwiched between inner and outer skin. I wonder how many actually do this as you have to chop off a bit more than you’d want to. My pencil...
