Disco 2 Replacement Chassis

Post by JKB » Fri Feb 17, 2017 10:40 pm

I have a 2001 Discovery 2 with a suspect chassis. It's due an MOT and likely to fail.
I have been offered a second hand chassis, stripped and cleaned, with a further offer to galvanise it and then fit it to my car.
Does anyone have any views or advice on this?
It is a lot cheaper then new and is starting to look like an option.
Any feedback will be appreciated.
Thanks,
JKB

depends on the price quoted for new. have a word with Spannermonkeys at Gateshead. they have several new D2 chassis in and can turn them around in a week. they will give you good honest advice. speak to Marsha 0191 4698740. they have people come from all over the country and Ireland to have them changed

you will have to take the ID of the chassis you are fitting unless you go for a new chassis which you can then keep the ID of the original
