With this change to the chassis do you still get to keep the original plate need to get a q plate ..I once saw a stretched discovery the internet says it was 116inch

Seeing as you have all the jigs made up, I’ll just drop my disco 1 off at your place for a chop and stretch cassis job. Aussies tend to do this with touring (overlanding) rigs then have to get them replated for the amount of weight they add. Loving this series.

Well paul bet your pleased 1ith that chassis build. (For now).you can take that nail out of the metre😂. It looks well impressive for not doing a one before.it will be a doddle for you to put engine and box's in .i have one problem with your channel as well THERE NOT LONG ENOUGH. keep going.

A very small bit of constructive advice. PLEASE stop changing the name of your channel. It’s hard to find my way back to your channel after a name change. Also, if you do change it again make it your name or Teddy’s shed or something that stands out. There are more 4x4 and Overland channel then stars in the night sky. Plus you could then do non overland related stuff. I would quite happily watch you design and built furniture, a deck, or shop infrastructure stuff which would also help you bring in a broader sponsorship variety. None of this is meant to be negative, I just don’t want you to get lost in the crowd of off-road channels and I would like to find my way back to you videos when it’s been a couple weeks and I haven’t had any notifications that i recognize as your channel. Thank you very much for taking the time to share your knowledge and what projects you are working on.

Are you getting it galvanised at shropshire galvanising watched Edd China getting a a landrover chassis done there

With regards to your storage draw. Have you seen, Vanvault's, slim slider, S10880? I have one, and it has close to full extension without the use of draw slides. It may be worth looking at one to, dear I say copy and make something similar out of aluminium. I live in Leeds if you are unable to get to have a look at one.

Nice work. How do you get the legal side sorted? IVA? Keep grinding

Were the rock-sliders bought or fabricated? Just fitted a pair to my D2 and, honestly, I think bolting them to the sills is a bit questionable (although, TBH, they're really just intended to replace my rusty OEM sidesteps) but, if they bolted to the chassis, the outriggers would need to be like girders before they'd be more useful than the ones that bolt to the sills. I'm kind of interested to see how rock-sliders fit to things like Jeeps or Land Cruisers. Maybe the chassis rails on other vehicles are wider apart so there's less leverage on the sliders? It's not a big deal for me cos, as I said, I really just need them to work as sidesteps so I can reach the roof.

Watched this a couple of days ago, but just happened across the latest Ed China video (ep 62) where they've dipped a range rover chassis over at Shropshire galvanisers. Really interesting insight in to the process and the extra bits they did to make sure the acid dip and galv all drained out correctly and took to the chassis. I imagine it'll be exactly the same process for yours so well worth a watch for anyone interested.

That smile on your face before you cut it said it all mate 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

hello....very helpful video. I installed on my TD5 110 defender 2002....and hits the exhaust pipe. what 110 defender do you have ?

Impressive work !

A really interesting video, thanks for posting. Have you ever tried a reciprocating saw for cutting everything up, rather than a grinder?

Look forward to seeing it at the overland show 👍

Dream welding, very nice👌

Bra the welding is savage!!. Why didnt you go 130 inches?

Hi bud found your channel. What happened to raptors garage? Is this your petsonal channel? Hi from melb australia!

Nice l like the way you crafted the extra length in the chassis it does blend in well with the rest looking forward to the rest.

Ard let Karen answer that one about the extra 😅😅

Alot of work but will be worth it in the long run one of a kind and we know how much you love building this stuff

That's solid. When I was building my chassis I seen a snapped navara I then proceeded to weld great big 4mm plates along the chassis rails

Well done digging them angles out👍

mine has rotted exactly where you are drilling lol good to know the steengh is at the top.. btw didn't landrover do a 16 inch stretch for a couple of specials.

Good job, salutations from France !!!

nice welding Paul.only you know what you are looking for .did you clean out that crap from inside.a bet your electric metre has been spinning.good job.

Love the chassis build it is the perfect length now with 37inch tires it will be proportional ,beautiful 👍👍👍👍👍👍

With you changing the wheel base of the vehicle doesn't that require a sva test when finished? Just a thought

Don't worry, I talk to myself in the garage all the time and I haven't even got any cameras on me! I quite often ask how somethings going to work out loud and then sort of answer myself, it does help you figure stuff out sometimes

I'm so glad I rediscovered your KZfaq channel. An OG follower from a few years ago with the Raptor's Garage days. Keep up the great work. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

Better to have them and not need them.......than NEED them and think.....fuck.....I left them back at the garage......

Hi Paul. Great job as always. Just a thought, as you are looking to get the chassis Galvanised, are you going to drill extra drain holes now to let both the acid wash escape fully, but also let the Hot Galvanise get to all points inside the chassis? 🤔Keep up the great work. 👍😎🍻

Great work love watching all the teadus work just like any land rover chasing you tail hey that's why we love them😮

Getting there mate slowly but surely 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Evening, great progress again Pal! Looks awesome!

Evening all,

25 minutes in I'm talking to the screen "it's going it's guna swing"

First of all thanks for posting! I was wiring mine up in the living room watching this on KZfaq. I used soapy water to get those terminal boots too easily move into position.

Paul, why you not using a Defender chassis, the deeper section means it is stronger, or atleast fit a 110 rear section to do away with the dip and give you a rear fuel tank mount

Just catching up dude. Looking forward to follow the rest of the rebuild it’s going to be epic

So excited to this rig come together 😁😁

Another top video pal! Keep em comin! 👌👍

Hi are you still going to but 300tdi back in or you considering something else enjoying the content like watching buids from chassis up 😊

It still blows my mind the knowledge you have around these things and yes this is going to be pretty awesome build 🤙🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Chassis is coming on nicely there dude! Seriously can't wait to see what the finished product looks like! Getting excited now!! 😂😂

Looking good there fair play! Good job you enjoy welding mate, there could be more to come 😉😉👌

paul could you make these vids longer just getting into it and it finished.only joking.but its going to look the dogs when your finished.i remember off the ..........channel the changes were good to watch.

you just got to love that clunk clunk clunk of a DIESEL

howsitgoin me pommy mates beautiful country side nice driving. Thanks fellas ..

I saw the duck on the bonnet. Any connection to FatCat4x4?

When you start rebuilding the new chassis the first job to do is the seat belt anchor mounts, if you forget them its a nightmare doing them with the body on. Ask me how I know.
