you can get most parts as replacements if you have a look on inter web, I would print out a plan of a chassis and mark up where you got holes, previous repairs, what bits good. Then price up parts to repair and estimate welding labour charges...

I do understand what you are saying to me it will take me most of this year to save the money. If that is my only hope then I will have to try.

Maer £2k, that's not so bad when you think about it.

How much is a chassis nowadays, when I looked a few years back it was about £1500. Make sure you look carefully at the front, last year I towed a Series 3 whose front chassis looked good, turned out it wasn't! If you are capable of swapping a...

I haven’t tried welding yet! I know that the front has had some welding done in the past. There is no damage to front chassis though.

If the front end is good then maybe half a chassis if available. Can you weld?

I wish! I haven’t got the money. Is there no other way to sort my chassis?

New chassis time by the looks of it.

Appreciate you showing me this. It’s out of my reach though wish I had the money as I would definitely jump on them.

I would recommend read this https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/recommended-chassis-replacement-specialists-90-300tdi.390778/#post-5680773

Is it 2nd April Newbury? Will it be sign posted so I know where to go?

It’s just off of junction 13 of the M4. It’s a twice yearly sale of Landy parts with tools and other stuff. I find it a great social too. Well worth going in my opinion!

I'll second that, picked up some reet bargins last year for my D2 & FL1.

I thought it to be better to start a new post about the ongoing work on the chassis on my series 2a swb 1971. My first post was on Oct 2nd 2023. Today has been the first time since my last post that I have been able to get on with the chassis. My...

Epoxy zinc phosphate, 2k, followed by 2k epoxy mastic, 2k paint to top .then billt hamler dynax ub on the outside. The inside do with dynax s50.

You can still go waxoil but it’s a constant job. Really needs a touch up each year while checking for problems.

Before you do any welding give the chassis a good steam/pressure clean inside and out. Lift chassis up to let moisture drain out and use an air line if you can to blast out any debris and damp. Best done in summer or warm garage to ensure...

Hello @GSF 109 sorry to read your post about your garage closing. Not sure if I’m too late on asking you a question! But I’m interested in a “mig welder” if you still have one I can afford? Thanks Trumar

When and where is Land Rover show? I got series 2a swb 1971 I need some bits is it worth going?
