Frequently Asked Questions

 

Some of the Frequently Asked Questions about Marsland Chassis products, this section is devoted to the giving you the answers.

How difficult is a standard 88" short wheelbase chassis change ?

A Series III Land Rover chassis change or rebuild is a major job and should only be undertaken by mechanics with extensive experience of Land Rover repairs.

Is there any welding or cutting involved ?

No welding or cutting should be necessary for a standard chassis change, however very few chassis changes are standard. Repairs to the bulkhead or fabricating special brackets for example would probably necessitate some degree of welding. In addition any seized components or fastenings may require an Oxyacetylene torch or Angle Grinding equipment to remove.

Can I order a bolt on gearbox cross member on a standard 88" SWB ?

Yes although this is an special order item and an extra charge will apply.

Is it possible to have an auxiliary tank rigger fitted ?

Yes an auxiliary or left-hand tank rigger can be fitted during manufacture to allow twin fuel tanks to be fitted, again this is a special order item and there will be an extra charge.

Can a military rear cross member be fitted to a standard chassis ?

It is possible to fit a military rear cross member to a standard chassis and there is no extra charge for this. However in the case of a standard LWB 109" bear in mind there will be insufficient room to fit a rear fuel tank because of the additional stay bars from the military cross member to the chassis. Most military 109" models have twin tanks underneath the seats.
