Right, to start off with I don't know this chap, I got a couple of Disco rear crossmember mounting brackets off him through Ebay and I thought I'd share it with you.
He makes and sells the Disco rear crossmember mounting brackets and the retail for £13.50 each or £25.00 a pair + P&P.
Now I've not seen anyone else selling just the brackets, they only seem to sell the whole crossmember at over £100 and if anyone that was at Belgium remembers the state of my bracket then you'll know why it needs replacing!! :?
The chap I got them from is Ron Maughan and his email address is ronmaughan@hotmail.co.uk
He also makes Defender Bulkhead repair sections and, I think they are, Disco out sills.
Within the next few weeks he's going to start producing Defender Footwells, Galvanised fueltank brackets that come with stainless nuts & bolts plus galvanised seatbelt mounting brackets that fit to the chassis. I take it these will be for the Defender.
I'll let you know what the brackets are like when they arrive but for the meantime here's a couple of photos for you.
P.S - I couldn't think of anywhere else to put this post but if one of the Mods thinks it should be elsewhere then feel free to move it. :wink:

i do know that landrover will supply you with the bulkhead repair panels & the inner & outer sills,just has a britpart sticker on them,
never seen the rear mountings forsale before,dunno if it would be easy to fit them though :?

Well, on mine the crossmember is still good, it's just the mounting that's gone so I'm going to give it a go. :wink:
He has extended the plate to bridge any rusty bits that are left after the old mounting has been removed so I'm hoping that'll be enough. :D
I know there are a few places that sell the sills and the bulkhead repair but not sure about the other stuff. I just thought it may be a good contact if someone was looking for these type of parts. :wink:

yes they look good thats what i had to repair whilst my floor was out last year, i spent half a day shaping and bending in the vice so i spose for that price it saves all the hassle. joe

Got the crossmember mounts through today and they are well made.
Laser cut, machine welded and there is a thicker piece of plate where the mounting will site. :D

they are really well made,

I got a set of bulkhead repair panels of him a few weeks ago, top quality and very good service. Reasonable price too.
