tinworm woes

<< < (2/2)

Range Rover Blues:
I've had a quick look and you're is not as bad as mine, so you could get away with patching the inner sill, but would you be happy with that?

The surface has scaled and is undoubtedly thinner now, if has rust and no amount of pianting will stop it for good.  SO how long do you want the repair to last?

It will make your life easier if you repair one half of each sill at a time though, so if you buy the inner sills then just replace the front half/back half as you think fit, if you decide to repair them then try to cut beyond the rust into sound metal, and use slightly thicker steel in your repairs.

The rear wheelarches are borderline in need of repair, I fabricated patches for these but I know I'll be going back some time to replace them.
