This weekend I spent a little time rust proofing
the chassis.
However First off I fitted both the steps and the drop plate
to see what it looked like.
The I set about cleaning the chassis and removing
all the loose rust. Below is a comparison photo - right it cleaned left is
un-cleaned.
The photo below is after the cleaning.
The chassis was then sprayed in rust
convertor.
While this was drying I filled the chassis with
cavity wax, not my favorite job but an important part that is worth doing
properly.
After this was complete I started spraying on the
chassis hard wax, results are good.
Then on to the bottom of the rear tub, as this is mostly aluminum I used stone chip as this will go some way to help with
sound deadening.
I will be having a bit of a break now until April
as other things have taken priority, but the job list is:
- Fit the mid cross member
- Wax the cross member and re wax some missed spots
- re-wire and refit the rear loom
- Wax and refit the fuel tank
Then after these small tasks I'm on to painting the
body work before refitting.
