Are 200/300tdi chassis's the same.....

<< < (2/3) > >>

Disco-Ron:
Thanks all...

Richard's chassis's website actually states,.... 'We do not make 88" coil chassis, Range Rover or Discovery yet.'
So that options out, i too was slightly amazed when i realised just how bad this chassis actually is, it's a 98 disco, and the 92 that i just sold had a better if not imaculate chassis, this one has been crushed by my winch bumper bolts, there's a hole near the front hockey stick chassis mount, in the main rails, and another near the rear shock mount, same side, i'm a bit pee'd off to be honest, this truck now owes me roughly 9k, and when i bought it, i thought it was really good, now i know why the guy sold it!!

The using an older chassis idea might work, it'd ideally already be a 300 one, identity i don;t care about, (is there actually a number ON the chassis???)

Thanks for the ideas.....

The one thing thats putting me off, is that i don;t have a 4 or 2 post lift..... which i suspect is critical when re-chassising a disco..... unlike a defender....

Designa DO actually do a chassis for a range rover, http://www.designa-chassis.co.uk/rangerover.asp so the next question is, is the range rover and discovery chassis the same..???? ie, if i ordered a 300tdi manual range rover chassis, would the disco bits just bolt on etc......

J.D.:
I will have a rotten 300Tdi being broken soon, your welcome to the chassis if you come down and pick it up.

Any idea what the chassis condition is like... thanks for the offer, but it'd need to be a good one, as there's no point in doing it only to get another rough chassis.....

Thanks!

Disco-Ron:
Any further thoughts./.... apart from ,,..... you must be mad!!...LOL

Now had email from Designa..... they don;t do a disco chassis, so, looks like the olnly real option is to find a really good 2nd hand one, blast, see whats left, and have galved if it's worth it.....
