    Army Rover 110 Isuzu rear crossmember

    Does anyone know what the rear crossmember on the army 110 looks like? I understand that the army chassis has been modified in a variety of ways, that something akin to H beam cross section was affixed to replace the rear civilian style crossmember.
    Has anyone around here replaced their rear/end crossmember with this or similar?
    Pics would be good.
    Cheers

    It is much more than a different rear cross member.

    The rear of the chassis is cut off immediately behind the coil spring mount and a new rear is fitted which comprises of 100mm X 50mm RHS. The rear cross member is about 25mm behind the rear of the body, it also has a pair of helicopter lifting rings and up underneath, where the fuel tank in the civilian variant fits is a spare wheel winch.

    The chassis is also galvanised.




    (Note: the hole just below the rear toolbox for the wheelbrace to operate the spare wheel winch.)

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    Thanks for that mate. I finally found it on page 15. Dear god what a lot of work went into that LS1 powered County. Interesting conversion of the GQ box on to the LT230 Transfer. I've heard the GQ driveline is bulletproof. Had a squiz at some of the Patrol forum threads.
    Interesting read of the link you provided. V8s aren't my cup of tea but nice to see quality effort.
    Cheers steu
