110 Rebuild
« on: September 16, 2007, 18:30:20 »
Well time has come to rebuild my trusty steed.
I going to put a new galvanized chassis & want to put a new galvanized bulkhead on it too.
Question is...where can I get a galvanized bulkhead for a 200Tdi from?
Cheers

If it's the picture in the mag... then they are Td5 ones (I think, only had a quick look at the ad), which will require some mods to fit a 200Tdi...

And they are virtually the same price from a main dealer AFAIK..  :wink:

iam in exactly the same boat.

i have found a galvanizer nearme that offers £50 per ton for galvanizing www.wedge-galv.org

IIRC

mine is a 200tdi 110 with a galv chassic already but the rest really does need a good tidy up

i'm trying to do a rolling resto a bit at a time but I know it will not lats like that.

I was going to galv all the bracketry body cappings and have  ascrewfix depot about 2 miles away with lots of shiny nuts and bolts and rivets.

I saw a few unpainted galv bulkheadfs at land rover festm last weekend and they do look rather good.

There are plenty of places currently doing new TD5 bulkheads for around £200 and the necessary changes to make one fit a 200TDi are minimal.
I would buy one, do a dry run and then send it off for galvansing. It may mean you have a delay of a couple of weeks but at least you know you won't be drilling any more holes through the new galvanised finish.

Having said that, a new bulkhead that has been properly rust-proofed should last 25-years or more so the question is, do you NEED a galvanised one or is it just a whim? Don't get me wrong, I am in favour of it but is it really necessary?

Hi Ray

No the old girl really is looking sorry so & new chassis, bulkhead, loom, doors etc etc should see her fit for another 20years  :lol:
Will be doing it in my unit at Totnes so should be able to get it done fairly quickly...& in the dry!

Fed up with the salt water & air corroding everything so am going to get as much as I can galvanized...I'm a bit worried a galvanized bulkhead might look poo though  :roll:


Plus side is Rangie will be back on the road so I can go play again  :D

I got to get the winch bumper off & sent to chassis people so they can profile the chassis dumb irons first before galvanizing...first of many jobs I feel :roll:
