ELVIS Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Hope ive called it by the right nem, would be a sill on any other vehicle!! The sill that runs from the A to C pillar appears to be held on with a bit of luck and chequer plate riveted over the top (although the whole thing is a bit wobbly). One presumes underneath there is a proper bit of metal that connects the outriggers. Is this bolted on or weld on? easy to do? parts available? erm, anything else i need to know? When you open passenger doors the sill tops look distinctly crusty and has a good 'explosion' for want of a better word,of tiger seal trowled on over the top.

Landy-Novice Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 its the fixings are: 2 bolts on the bulkhead out rigger 6 spot welds on the B pillar 2 bolts on the seat belt anchorage point 6 spot welds on the C pillar 2 bolts on the mid cross member and a few bolts on the floor panels. best way to remove is with an 7mm drill bit, a hammer and chisel. http://www.yrmlandro...oducts/070-0001 http://www.yrmlandro...oducts/071-0001 as this is a job i have completed as mine were no the best... , i would surgest using the company above, there very good and parts are very accurate. good luck.
