Please make sure you disinfect them. I'm not sure Wolf realises, that not all clamps are actually for use in S&M games.Or whatever passes for S&M in sunnevershinesland

Been down the workshop, to make a start on cleaning it out.
Took some pics of the chassis.
Think it's fair to say the arse is rotten. Loving the filler in this pic
Spring mounting May need a bit of plating.
Got a lovely towhitch off it. fromt plate is about 1/2" thick.
Rest of Pics here.

After we've sorted the chassis properly and swapped everything over I'd be tempted to keep it if I were you.
After all.....
You'll never recoup the labour cost

Off the top of my head The gearbox has about 150k on it But it's been sitting around for about 4 years now And will need a good clean up. The transfer box I know is in good condition as it came off the last Disco I had.

Used a 2T trolley jack and several wooden blocks Hilift just pushes the chassis across the garage as it swivels around.
