  • Chassis replacement parts

    Does anyone know of an UK supplier for Surf chassis parts? I've tried google, but I keep getting Land Rover results!

    In particular, I'm looking for a replacement front cross member for a 2nd Gen SSRX. The rest of the vehicle is in decent shape and I'd like to avoid scrapping it - but not at all costs!

    Do you mean this section?


    I cut it out and replaced it with some 60mm X 60mm box section steel.....

      Yeah, that's the one. Cheers! Anything to watch out for during the cutting and replacement?

      Looks fantastic in that 'after' picture!

        No surprises, just chop out the old piece, measure the gap and cut and weld the new section in place.
        You'll need to weld the bracket to the new crossmember if you want to re-fit your bashplate.

          Replaced it today - took about eight hours from bonnet up to bonnet down. If we're ever in a pub simultaneously, I'll be buying you a pint! That tip must've ended up saving us hundreds of quid.
