Ahhhh shit. I'm now finishing this before it's sold. It's getting a few changes as well.

Guess what I also found more rust.....I'm not doing another Sj without taking the body off :lol: I've had a busy evening

Yeah should only take a day to fix it all hopefully, need it done as quickly as possible so I'm gonna be putting a lot of time in over the next few weeks :brows:

Will see if any more turns up once I hit it with the wire wheels and blaster :lol:

Oh shit, that's going to bring some rust worm out!

I took the inner arch off when fitting my towbar electrics, saw three massive rust holes, but the wheel arches cover them, so i'll forget until they fall off!

He who hunts shall find....more rust....tbh not sure how i missed the inner sill rot while doing the virtual lift but then the body mount area needed more work than i thought it would either way :hahaha:


Sometimes it easier to just cut loads out for access and to start again.

Cheers dude, that inner sill end is a tricky one, the radiuses are so different on the inner and outer edges but I got it close enough to be happy with :lol:

The other body mount looks nowhere near as bad but you can never tell until that bottom plate comes off :S
