Hi Ben,
At first i wanted the Chassi Galved i spoke to many Galvanising companies but they didnt want to be responsible if something went wrong, eg. chassi warping! They didnt want their huge galv baths contaminated with all the crap from inside the chassi as they can collect mud and rust from the inside out.
I ended up making a tool and spray penetrol / fish oil on the inside of the chassi through the front rails all the way through to the back.
i had over 90 pieces to be galved, small items had to be tied to lengths of wire in groups of 5 as these small pieces would be spun after dipping & so nothing will go missing either.
all items had to be numbered and labelled. then the galvers would stamp and no. a plate which would be attached to each group of parts. To ensure all the parts stay together.
Everything turned out well the day i picked up the parts i actually sat in the carpark at the galvers and made sure everything was there before i left the place. Touchwood all went well having knowing what the dangers were with galvanising.
cheers,
chris
