N Plate Disco rear floor replacement

Jan 02, 2008 6 Replies

Hi All,



My N plate Disco is suffering from rot and the rear floor needs replacing, the job is too big for me, what sort of price can I expect to pay to have it replaced.



Can anyone explain the process of the floor replacement to me please.



Many thanks



James


I recently had the following done in my 95 Disco. Rear floor replaced, cross member under rear floor replaced, driver's wheelarch repaired (welded) and it all cost including parts £338.00.

Take out the carpets remove fuel tank drill out the spot welds holding the floor to the cross member (as an option you can replace the x member which saves the drilling out bit) cut out the floor panel (angle grinder cut off tool or shear) make good the edges weld in replacement panel I intend to plug weld so a few blind rivets to hold everything tight before I fire up the mig seal the seams repaint and slonk rustproofing - probably waxoyl across the job . Now the weather forecast has gone rather nasty so it wont be this week. The whole process was covered in LRW which you can buy from the website

OK - well for that price its worth having done sooner rather than later, and going by what Derek has said the job would take a little while......where did you have it sone, can anyone recomend anywhere in Surrey......I also need the pasenger rear wheel arch welded.

Hi James, being disabled I cannot do any of these jobs myself which is why I had to take it to the local Landrover specialist, Land Ranger but I live in the Wigan area.

Darren Burgess did the following write-up of the job on his website
