Guest diesel_jim Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 HiHow much should I expect to pay to have a 90 chassis galvanised? Can anyone reccomend a good place in the midlands? Thanks, Tom. I had my 110 chassis done recently. and it's heavy as it's an ex military armoured jobbie, so lots of extra plating welded over it, plus ihad the geabox crossmember and the station wagon body crossmember done at the same time. total cost: £209 done by wessex galvanisers in Eastleigh, Southampton. but they've got depots all around.... They're part of the "wedge galvanizing group", depot in Willenhall too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommi Posted January 2, 2008 Author Share Posted January 2, 2008 OK - thanks. Does anyone know how much a 90 chassis weighs? Thanks, Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diesel_jim Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 After thinking about what i just typed, it's not really the initial weight that makes the cost, it's the difference between "before" and "after" weights, as thats the about of zink used. so a 110 chassis being longer than a 90, it'll be less, but not that much i don;t suppose. i think my old 90 i had done back in 2000 costs about £160, add a bit for inflation, say £180 or so?

landrover598 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Two years ago i had my 100" chassis shot blasted, galved and door to door collection/delivery for £220 with West Wales Galving Serv, who are dealers for Cardiff Galving.

portal pete Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 I use Edward Howell (wedge group) in willenhall for larger components. They do a very good job, their cost at the moment is £260 per tonne plus a 36.25% zinc surcharge plus a further 3.5% enviromental surcharge. I had 380kg (total weight once galved) done last week which cost £138+vat. So would think it would cost £80-£110 to galv your chassis.
