As a cost effective good option if you are looking at changing diff centres to something better then look at the Ashcroft ATB, I fit these to all the diffs I rebuild and also the LT230 transfer case

Hello Daz,
It is a shame that you are in Perth and and Dave (BlackKnight) is in Melbourne. In Bundaberg if you contact a mechanic the next word you get from them is usually rude as soon as the words Land Rover are mentioned. I tried to organise a more Land Rover friendly local mechanic. However, they were a no show. Also no reply to phone calls and texts.

Before I had the chassis work done I had wanted a mechanic to inspect it to assess whether the whole vehicle was worthwhile spending money on. I would still like a skilled experienced Land Rover mechanic to inspect the vehicle to let me know what work needs to be done to get it up to being road legal. Or to let me know if I would be better off to start advertising it for wrecking.

I rolled the dice on getting the chassis work done instead of just leaving the vehicle sitting idle and deteriorating. Also, with a damaged chassis no matter how much money I spent elsewhere on upgrades and repairs it would never be able to be registered with a damaged chassis. Catch 22. Now I find myself still in the Catch 22 situation - just with a fully engineer certified repair to the chassis.

You know the bit about polishing a turd. According to Mythbusters it can be done... It just has to be from either an ostrich or a lion - apparently!

Kind regards
Lionel
