Hello chaps!

I am going to look at a 90 (1986) 2.5 petrol today in a view to get it on the road or just for off roading, I had a sneaky peak at it yesterday, bulkhead is bubbling, not holed, rear crossmember iffy, but it has been stood couple of years!

Any help regarding chassis checks or anything else would be a help!

Thanks

Check everything between the front and rear bumper

as said if its metal check it and dont be afraid to tap it with a hammer or screwdriver, if only the rear crossmember is gone then its not to bad sounds like a good but if you can weld sounds like a good buy

Hi

Someone sent me this link when I was buying mine

Defender Buyers Guide

For some reason you can read it but not download it without paying the subscription
