morning all, I’m after good bulkhead for a 200tdi 110 pickup. I assume there’s variance through the years I.e will a td5 or tdci not fit?
Am I best to source a 2nd hand one and blast and galv? Any advice appreciated as always!
Thanks and have a good Easter!
There are some minor variances. Early 200Tdi bulkheads didn't have door switches for interior light. If your Landy currently has door switches then it's a bit of a faff when you have wires with switches dangling and no holes in the A pillar to thread them through. 200Tdi's have the fuel filter bolted to the bulkhead, don't think a 300Tdi bulkhead has those bolt locations as the fuel filter went to the offside front wing.morning all, I’m after good bulkhead for a 200tdi 110 pickup.

If you use your own bulkhead and have it galvanised (a very cheap process, I think my local please now has a minimum charge but it is still only £100+VAT and for that you can get a whole lot of bits cleaned, stripped & dipped)

My local galvanizing place (Sawtry) have put their prices up. Was quoted today £250 to £300 + vat for a bulkhead, didn't include shot blasting either!! Last year when I got a quote it was £80 to £100. His exact words were "we know how much bulkheads are worth". Needless to say I've found a different place.
The price should be based upon weight per kg added in the galvanising process.How much they are worth really shouldn't be the issue though,
