On my second go I riveted the cross members to floor and they sit on the chassis top on rubber cushions. The U slots are to fix the door threshold , 2 pieces one shown in pic the other piece I need to change , prob go to yrm for that You don’t...

Haha no worries. Wish I had seen this last year before I purchased the top hats would definitely got this floor. Appreciate you sending this to me.

I had forgotten! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/220993538098

You done a very nice job that looks so neat underneath the floor. The 3 cross members are they bolted onto the chassis or onto the edge of the tub? I haven’t got any problems with the lip around my tub. What are the U slots for? Where them U...

the little U slots near door was drilled then hacksawed out and filed neat and sealed with some car body sealer

I’m not sure if the floor is original as I have taken all 3 top hats off and they have all been riveted on, I thought that was the way to go. I haven’t got the knowledge to weld them.

Nice one for this. I wish I had the room to work on my truck but I have only a single garage. I have seen videos of rear tub removal but not many show replacing the floor.

I have tried finding the floor you said about but no joy. Apologies first time I have had time to answer you.

I saw a tub floor on Ebay with the top hats already welded to it. Will try and find it.

Afternoon sir, I have got the 3 top hats and the cross member supports to put on the rear tub floor, do I put the top hats onto the floor first before I put floor back onto the tub? I have got the countersunk rivets from YRM. I just got to get...

Thank you much appreciated

Sure YRM will have them listed on their site.

Can someone please tell me what size countersunk pop rivets I need for putting the 3 top hats on the underside of tub floor and the sides of the floor?

Or follow LRM on social media and they post the sale dates in advance. They also put signs up at the event showing dates of forthcoming events.

If you grab a copy of LRM they put all the spares day & camping event dates in there or look on their website & sign up for emails & they send you details/reminders of up & coming events.

The Billing show is 29th & 30th of June. There's also one in May at Malvern Hills 18-19th of May.

Do you know the date for the Billing LR show in June please?

Hi, I've been looking for about 3 yrs now & couldn't believe my luck £10 for the lamps ( the same for the arms). I had one reflector that was shot when I got my D2 so at last I can make a good set. I think any 7" H1 reflector/lens will fit the...

No worries. lol seen as you have already done your series is there any Parts or Nuts n Bolts that I should replace before attaching onto the new chassis?

I can't answer that but they seem to have a very good reputation. Other chassis are available.

Been checking over the front chassis and it has had quite a lot of welding mainly at the very front both sides of where the leaf springs attach to. So I have taken on board what you have been saying to me about a Maer chassis! Is the Maer the...

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294300589664 You can also get the centre cross member for another £150. It's only worth doing if the front end is good and there is solid metal to weld to. You will also need to be confident in your welding abilities or...

Not much to weld to, at the least it needs some repair sections welded in, like a half chassis. Even then there doesn't look like much to weld that to. It is hard to tell with photos but in general rust is always worse than it first looks. Of...

Atleast it will be done once and won't need doing again. In the meantime you can restore, tidy up other parts ready to swap things over.

That is what I have been doing for last 5yrs apart from replacing front wings and doors I have done everything else. I have done other posts on here about trouble I’m having with the electrics they have spanked me big time lol I just can’t get my...

Think I’ve had mine about 18 years this year and I’ve had just about every part off to replace / refurb Rear floor, front floors , a posts, front panel, windows, rear door, both axles and diffs , all springs , seat box repair, engine refurb (2) ...

Nope….. if I go it’s on the Motobike so I should not buy anything.. except last time I got a a load of lifting chains. Mrs was not happy with the rucksack on the way home.

😂 I don’t blame her! That’s a good point - I need some lifting straps
