Help needed, Defender wing repair section
Is this section available? Searched net but can't find it, not sure of the part name or description needed to find it.. Just stripped the wings of a 300 tdi and it's corroded to nothing where it bolts the the chassis. Thanks Craig

If you can't find one this would have to be the easiest piece to fab up. Its mostly flat and you still have the original for the position of the holes. Use sockets and a vice or press to press in the inset places and a shot bag and hammer to get the indented bottom area. (practice on a scrap piece of ally first - its soft so go slow). I think you'll find the end product up to scratch and you'll be really satisfied with your effort. Show us how you go if you try to DIY.

From the diagram on LR Workshop, it doesn't look like that part is available separately, unfortunately.

N/S required?

Damn, skipped one of these about 8 months ago! Rest of the wing was FUBAR'd afterb a minor RTC, but that bit was definitely good.

There are(was) lots of replacement wing sections including that part available for not much money when I was looking.

Thanks guys for all your suggestions & advice, going to look for damaged wings and drill the sections off to repair what are a good pr of wings other than the corroded front mountings. Craig
