Buzza Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Out of interest, does anybody know the purpose of these holes I've outlined in the rear crossmember body mountings on a 90. Its a Richards chassis, been in touch with them and they dont know, just said they are on the original drawings they work from. Not got them on my original chassis ? Never seen them before.

western Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 possibly bolt holes for the rear bumpers fitted to military 90/110. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litch Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I've got them on my 1986 chassis but they only go through the welded tab, not through the crossmember itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve They're for the Military "Lifting/Towing Ring" (Land Rover's description) NRC4853, that fits to the rear crossmember, inside the Bumperettes - I've got them on my 110 - . .

Buzza Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 Well you live & learn, I've never seen those before, thanks for that Paul & for the other replies. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 more common on military Series LR.s 90/110 had the 'JATE' rings on the chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulMc Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 more common on military Series LR.s 90/110 had the 'JATE' rings on the chassis. All of 'our' brand-new 1987 contract (KE/KF) 90/110's had them fitted, as well as JATE Rings. Land Rover were still fitting NRC4853 to early 'Defender' badged vehicles (KJ registered), even though they had the later style of bumperette (RRC5409/RRC5410) which incorporates the Lifting/Lashing eyes - . . . .
