I've just got myself a used galvy chassis for 400, and being as lazy as i am ive sent it to my local landy guy to do the swap, he's quoted Ã‚Â£1000 for the labour plus Ã‚Â£300 for all the bits and bobs (poly bushes etc). Oh and he's fitting my 3" lift at the same time.

Good Price/Bad Price?????

Rasbo - seems a good price to me but some others may know better.

the lorry with my chassis never made it north last week so i have yet another week to wait for my defender to come back

tonycougar · « **Reply #44 on:** August 05, 2007, 22:47:36 »

Mine didn't. Which miffed me a bit. I expected it to come with one.

looks really nice mate, makes my spray hammerite chassis look poor :-)

blackbeltbob · « **Reply #46 on:** August 08, 2007, 18:38:32 »

markyb - cheers but you are not as skint as i am now :D :D

Mutz · « **Reply #47 on:** August 09, 2007, 19:24:19 »

Nice looking job, bet your glad you did it now.
Hoping to do mine next year, just replacing rear cross member this year to get it through the MOT, then when its on the road got to start putting the pennies (maybe pounds) away for it.

Just spray hammerited my new chasis, waxoyl on Monday and the rebuild can begin.

and her it is sitting next to my dead 90

It's looking good. I'm beginning to wish I'd kept my 110 instead of flogging it and getting a Disco. Don't get me wrong I like the disco It's just that it's rotten at the back and I'd of been better off doing the 110 up.
