powder coating my bike frame which was a big frame was around £40 so I would expect the roof rack to cost the same. Powder coating will make it look a lot better, when i did the bike frame it looked great and was very strong coating against all the road stones flying up. I agree removing the...

I will be looking into spots but first I'm thinking of powdercoating it the same colour as the disco. this will make it look more of a one of for this disco. :D

richard chassis have put an advert in landrover monthly they are now doing disco 2 chassis. they havent put an artical in like i expected and there is no pricing. Any one phoned them yet see how much the disco 2 chassis are. I'm still hoping they start producing the rear end ar a replacment part...

sound like you need a portable food light. thats what I used. I also used 0.8mm for 3mm steel. as for the gas is it CO2 only, you will be better of with an Argon mix say 90%argon/CO2. my welds dont look prity when i do them but you can grind them down to look good. the braking them apart test is...

what mask are you using. I have a clear glass one that goes dark when welding. also for the V joint I welded both sides for strength this is because my mig as well as yours will struggle a bit penetrating 3mm still. You could go for 2mm which will weld better but not as stong. As for the weld...

I bought a supermig 150 from workshopping.co.uk. it had some good reviews. the clarks model for the same price had to many bad reviews. depending on your budget, so far i found this welder is very good up to 3mm steel. the power settings are not well explained but you can get to grips with it...

Hi Im looking at getting a full size roof rack for my disco 2. I would like one that looks like the voyager one see pic does anyone know where i can get one of these in the UK. :cool:

good just what i wanted to hear. will blank it off and see what happens thank all

thats right number 12, it says its the vent pipe but I also have a breather pipe. :confused2:

thanks shocker. I agree i dont want to block a breather to a fuel tank and a repair is not worth it with the cost of a tank being £35 second hand. but I dont believe this is a breather for the TD5 it part of the V8 system for emission and i dont see its needed for the TD5, however i would mind...
