Pictures of my old chassis first 2 are the rear section as you can see it’s actually made up of layers of metal. Next two are from the front from bumper past first cross member and has added webs not just the ones shown in your video. I suspect areas around spring mounts will have quite a bit of...

The Marsland chassis will be type approved as it’s supplied by the same company that made chassis for Land Rover that’s why they come with the latest crumble zones only thing they change is engine mounts. As for Richards I don’t think they are and that’s why I didn’t buy from them. All I’m doing...

I’ve seen inside a chassis plenty times there is more than those little angle webs. I’ll take some picks off inside my old chassis and let you see. There is sections that’s are up to 3 layers thick and obviously the chassis was designed that way for a reason. I’m sure you will do a good job...

When I cut up my chassis it had more than just tubes there was a lot of webb’s inside and in places the steel is 3 layers thick when I’m At my workshop tomorrow I will take some pics of it. I’m a experienced fabricator and welder it’s not something I would tackle in my workshop. Like I’ve said...

I used this tool when changing drive flange on daughters auto Discovery. https://fourby.co.uk/epages/950004277.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950004277/Products/LRT-51-003

I hope you can do it but it's one thing to copy how the chassis looks externally you also need to copy the internals of the chassis as this is what gives the strength and also safety in the event of a crash. My replacement Chassis came fro Marslands Chassis and was basically a latest model 2015...

The chassis has a lot of strengthening brackets internally this is something to think about as well when building your own. Also where bolts pass right through the chassis rails there is tubes to prevent crushing when tightening the bolts. It won't just be a case of just taking a template of the...

If money is really tight I would repair it and then start saving for new chassis it won't just be £2000 for the chassis because once you get into it the costs will go up and up on things like all new bolts, new suspension, brake lines etc etc. When i did my chassis it probably cost me double...

I bought the Steve Parker kit and found the aftermarket seals wouldn't fit for love nor money ended up buying two genuine seals. I contacted Steve Parker and got some money refunded. If possible just buy the metal corner pieces and get genuine seals saves lot of hassle...

That's just pornographic

Fitted skimmed exhaust manifold and new Wurth manifold studs just got the new turbo to fit tomorrow.

The angle iron section where the rust is coming from looks to me like it's been spray painted possibly because there was an issue with the galvanizing in that area. I'd take it back and if they give you a replacement double check that area before accepting it.

Bump

I found recon one for £198 plus £60 exchange deposit on EBay so just ordered that. Had thought about used or fitting replacement cartridge myself but they were about £90 so worth it for extra £100 and come with 2 year warranty

On top of a warped manifold in daughters Disco TD5 the Turbo is on way out(lots of play) Can anyone recommend a supplier of reconditioned turbos looking to keep it standard.

I’m going to dewebb it I’ve got coarse debur cutters for my die grinder which should make short work of the webs. I’m also going make thick spacer washers to go on the studs. Would stainless steel be ok or just mild steel?

Yeah thanks Thor1950 when will it arrive? :D:D

The exhaust manifold on daughters TD5 Disco has warped and snapped two studs.Got the manifold off and I’m going have it skimmed at work. Looking to get new studs are the Wurth HDuty studs any good? Are they a bigger O/D and that means I have to drill and tap head stud holes to bigger size?

If it's the board that's sagging then you can glue or screw some strips of wood 2"x1" should be fine. I had a sagging front headliner caused by the preformed board getting damp over time. I dried it out and screwed wooden strips to it and this stopped any sagging

Think you need to get a less expensive engagement ring then come and buy the lot at a discounted price!!!
