    replacing rear quater panels

    Hi There, just in the process of replacing the rear panel on my tub (1971 88) as the other had rotted through and broken off but wasn't sure whether these just bolt straight to the rear bumper fixings or is there a bracket or spacer that attaches?

    Chassis repairs

    Thanks for the replies, it's what I was thinking. I may replace the rear quarter but the other whole is abot mid way. Previous owner had stuck a patch over it and it would appear to have spread . I'll try and add a photo to show you but have now removed the patch but won't be at the workshop...

    Chassis repairs

    so after a long absence from the dream that is owning a landrover, in back. I've got myself a series 2a winter project and it needs a little tlc I have a couple of hole in the chassis and was wondering whether people just stick a patch on the outside or cut it out and weld it flush?
