So if I was to replace my rear crossmember with one from D44, http://www.devon4x4.com/products_a/p87c43/0/d44-8274-rear-cross-member-with-winch-mount.html, I would need a SVA doing?

Shouldn't have to as your not actually changing the chassis!! the D44 is a direct replacement to the rear of chassis!! only difference being it incorporates a rear winch tray.
You don't have to tell them when you replace a rusted on for a britpart or alike! cos the new one does the same job but isn't supplied from L/rover.
Fitted one of these to my 90 & went on a treat done in about 2 hours!! ( old one cut of & new one on ) :dance: :clap:

I got a North offroad rear winch tray fitted into my rear cross member between the chassis legs, DVLA said it was classed as just repairing the chassis. But for your own safety (legally) best to email them and get a written answer.
But as to changing to truck cab, you will just need an inspection or receipt of work from a recognised garage if you want to convert to commercial tax bracket.
