Found a hole yesterday where one shouldn't be. It's about 1/4 inch across at the bottom back edge where it's rust-blistered. It looks expensive, or at least troublesome.
The MOT is due in September so I've a little time, and I'm wondering if I should weld it up for the time being or go the whole hog and replace. I have a good MIG set and time, but not indoor space tall enough to get the Landy in. I'm guessing it involves at least lifting the back of the body and removing the tank temporarily (deep joy! I _hated_ that job last time)
Two questions then: how awkward is it to do a rear crossmember , and should I go galv or normal? I understand the problems of having to weld galv - or at least having to grind it off round the welds. If I can patch it, what are the MOT issues?
Regards,
Simonm.
PS: Richard, if I want one, how much is a crossmember?
