grotty boot

HI ALL JUST DROVE TO THE ISLE OF MULL AND BACK TOO ESSEX IN MY OLD DISCO , OR DORIS AS SHES CALLED BY THE FAMILY SHE DIDNT MISS A BEAT . [sorry about the capitals ]. i have noticed the back floor is a bit rough is this very comon and are replacements available ,or does it meen the end for dorris.

You can get new floors, mine had one put in about 3 months ago before i bought it.

hi are these an expensive l/rover only part or are non patent parts available

Hi there-- Pattern floors not expensive but you have to drill out all the spotwelds.a slow tedious task.

I did mine and as has been said, its a long job. By the time you strip the interior, remove the old, weld in the new and then replace the interior its a two dayer. Put that up against the cost of having someone do it for you (£5-600) and its two days well spent. The replacement floor will cost you about £55 and its a good idea to get the bearers for underneath at the same time. They cost about £13 each but its a bugger if you get the floor out and find you need them. The rear one will definatly be in need of replacement, the other two you might get away with.

All prices plus VAT

Just doing mine taking my time (nothing eles to do these days) new floor, new x-member`s and new rear body mounts cost £144.00. incl VAT and PP. Shop around for parts.

New rear floor panel £57.07 inc vat from DLS in Wirksworth Derbyshire.

Regards WP.
