Matt B Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Just a quickie. I believe there to be two main manufacturers of pattern rear crossmembers for the 90. One is carp, the other is good from what I have been told, but I can't remember which is which and who sells which one. Has anyone got experience of these that is prepared to offer advice?

Jon White Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 All I can tell you is I bought one from Craddocks and it was cr@p quality (as was their customer service when I complained). Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 and I'll 2nd that when Jon came over and I helped him fit it I was horrified at the thinness of the metal ( NO REAALY - absolutely dreadfull) and the fact that the legs were so far out (about nearly a inch out of alignment). Frankly it was near junk irrespective of how cheap it was - and it wasn't cheap and they did the "whistle in the wind and we are not listening" technique when he complained The "Andrex" of LR Crossmember suppliers and customer [dis]service Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92.9 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I have bought a few chassis parts from Paddock Spares and they were really good. I had two chassis front members and two outriggers. Maybe ask around about Paddock's stuff and see if they are the ones who stock the good items. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Hmm had a whole 1/4 chassis for the lightweight from Paddocks, the holes for the tailgate hinges needed drilling out, aside from that, everything fitted really well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the weld in ones, infact it needs a whole rear 1/4. Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
