Hi

Just sharing some pictures of the replacement chassis that was installed this week and a picture of how bad it was. Hopefully prolonging her life considerably.

Hoping not to need to do that.
I did replace a rear chassis on the Defender but the Disco started as a good chassis, which I have cleaned up and treated/painted to keep it that way. (Tank out, etc.)
I found the new chassis replacement section for the Defender to be much lighter steel than the original chassis was made of, which worried me a little.
