smo Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Typically im sitting here working on some design stuff for the d-lander (joys of being redundant i guess) and i forgot to take a measurement betweeen the chassis rails. The chassis in use is a Range Rover Classic (so same as disco 1 and presumably same dims between rails as them all) Can anyone help with a quick dim check, thanks.

Bowie69 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 My 1991 RRC, 630mm front, between the bumper mounts 640mm centre, approx half way along the chassis 635mm rear, just behind the fuel tank Just through I'd check everywhere to make sure -you know what these LR build tolerances are like (the joy of working from home!)

steve_d Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 25-inches in old money Les. Is that normal inches or Britpart inches? Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will_warne Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Is that normal inches or Britpart inches?Steve Are they more or less accurate than Land Rover genuine inches???? I've found the Land Rover chassis rails are about as straight as a bananna and easily vary by 5mm along their length. Generally I've been working on a 635mm distance between rails (and 715 between the centres of the rails) as that's about average and tweeking what remains of my rails to suit my tubework.

andyb Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 @smo. If you need any RRC chassis related dimensions then I have a whole chassis against the wall of the workshop, just let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smo Posted June 3, 2009 Author Share Posted June 3, 2009 Cheers everyone for the input - especially Will, always good to have a laugh Andy - thanks mate, i have one under the car but didnt want to slog over the workshop and measure it "mid-flow", if i get stuck though i'll give you a shout.

andyb Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Andy - thanks mate, i have one under the car Yes I know ........but just thought some measurements might be easier off a bare chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
