Hi everyone I have a disco 2 and a 110 hi cap tub that I’m making in to a pick up ,the rear wheel on the disco will be wrong in the place it needs to sit to fit the tub so we are going to extend the chassis with either a defender 110 or a disco one (keeping the same profile anyone have any thoughts please

are the 2 different chassis sizes & makes?
You could not butt/sleeve these together
Questions..
After truck cabins the disco how much chassis do you have left??
The hi cap tub over hangs a chassis, are you over hanging or going flush to the chassis?
What is the wheel base of the project motor?
Answer these I will give more info…

First welcome 
.
I what way does it not fit the wheel arches? to far forward or back?
I would rather modify the tub than mess with the chassis as that drops you into a whole different catogory of modified.
So more work to make the tub fit will help down the line.
Got any pics or measurments that could help people help you.
