    Finnishing off Pressbrakes x-member

    Hello. Just got the landy back complete with new crossmember :D I have given the x-member two coats of red oxide, and Im going to paint it black with hammarite, and tetroseal the rear of the x-member. What Im wondering is should I hammarite the rear of the x-member as well as tetroseal it...

    Drilling one of Pressbrakes x-members

    Ok, errmmmm, yeah, why? :confused: Just aesthetics, or do you not think it is not capable? It is about 8mm thick, so I recon it would be way stronger then off the shelf brackets, especially when welded with Pressbrakes recovery point, that would be 9 blots attached to a 6mm crossmember with...

    Drilling one of Pressbrakes x-members

    When I first got the landy it had a nato hitch on as well as the towing bracket. I had the nato hitch taken off as it got in the way when uncoupling the trailer (I had a ball hitch at the time, now a pin and eye hitch). I sold the nato hitch ages ago, sorry.

    Drilling one of Pressbrakes x-members

    Either way its gonna get done, and I have a bloody ace x-member. If I had more time I would have sent the towing bracket down to pressbrake, but I couldn't wait that long, needs must!

    I think that the x member that's coming off would be better stay on then buying a brit part x member!!!! I chose your x-member as a result of reading the reviews on this forum, and they were all bang on, amazing goods, an amazing design (why did land rover not make them like this???), at a...
