Thread: 6WD Chassis Drawings

Hi Ferg

You will have to be a little more specific with your request.

The 6X6 variants were never a standard production model off the floor of the Lode Lane Factory. Most UK variants were constructed by a number of after-market conversion companies, although at least one, Scottorn Trailers/Reynolds Boughton, was a factory approved conversion where partially completed production models left the factory for conversion and returned to Land Rover Special Vehicles for completion. Other companies included Foley and Sandringham.

In the 1980s a 6X6 variant was developed by Jaguar Rover Australia in conjunction with the ADE for a 6X6 variant of the 110 Perentie. Some of these variants were sold as civilian vehicles.

Oh, OK. Thanks Diana.

Civilian variant. Released in the 80s (I'm guessing). Isuzu turbo diesel motor. Single cab. Loooong tray. Very rarely see them come up for sale.

2 versions wide and narrow cab.the front is same length only width is different.

front section made from square tube but all the mountings are the same location as a 110.

the rear evolved over the first few batches but after that they are basically the same .it had rolled metal as well as square tubeshares nothing with other 110.

patterning is the same for the military ones.....

From memory the alignment chassis check points and general layout data is in the EMEI.

I'm not back at work until Monday, but I recall seeing some drawings from the 6X6 we built up in the mid 80s - I'll see if I can dig them out and scan.

What about 8 x 8 with four wheel steer. I saw a chassis layout like that made with two County chassis cut and shut end to end with the first and fourth axle steering. I'll see if I can locate the drawings. It was designed as a private military venture in the UK I think but didn't offer sufficient over existing types of vehicles to proceed. Drove through all existing LR components.

Sounds like the MWG/Esarco vehicles.
