Les Henson Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Just picked up the brand new bare metal (I wanted it ready-primed), chassis for catflap Now currently resting up against the wall in the alley out of the rain. By the end of this week I should have the gas and helmet to start making the necessary alterations/fit strengthened rear crossmember to it. Thanks Diesel Jim for picking it up/being built like a brick s*** house. Pleased as punch today Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiagoc Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Call me old fashioned but I like my porn to have pictures it's a porn story, nothing graphical. just to make you imagine the chassis, all by itself in the alley, waitting for someone to arrive with a welder and a helmet. someone strong and daring enough, to strengthen it's rear crossmember...

I made a comment about you protecting a galv chassis from the rain .................. 'bare' must look like 'galv' without external reading magnification Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul McCleary Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 And there was I hoping to get a quick buzz out of some gratuitious outrigger shots! Never mind, I'll have to use my imagination. Anyone got some close up shots of the wonky rear cross member, pnarrrrrr! Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted May 11, 2007 Author Share Posted May 11, 2007 The rear crossmember isn't wonky (mind you - it came from Bearmach, so anythings possible ). Ennyway - it's the two chassis rails that run from the rear bulkhead crossmember to the rear. Either one is too low, or one is too high, or vise-versa. I'll get some kind of sadistic pleasure from cutting the damn thing up. Piccys tomorrow when Mr Sunshine is supposed to show his face for a while. Les.

Les Henson Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 At last it's stopped raining and I've finally got it on a couple of stands on the back yard. Gas and welding helmet at the end of this week, and I'll all set to - erm, cuts bits off it Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon White Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Les, Who made the chassis and was it any agro to get without a rear x member? I need to re-chassis my series and was thinking about getting something similar so I can add my own rear winch x-member! Cheers Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted May 16, 2007 Author Share Posted May 16, 2007 Tha chassis was made by Richards Chassis from Doncaster. Bare metal and standard apart from no rear crossmember was £734 inc VAT. There was no problem with supplying one without a rear crossmember - they put a length of angle iron close by to keep it all square. They can supply different engine mounts if you like, and of course, primed, plain, or Galv. Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
