Rear tub adjustment
Morning/afternoon all

Is there any adjustment on rear tub defender 90 200tdi, at seatbox end. Fitting half doors on a rebuild and looks like the rear tub needs to come up a little.

Cheers in advance

Mine, a pre 200tdi just sat on the 6 tabs that are welded on the chassis. There are rubber isolators between the tub and the chassis, that are pop riveted to the 3 tub under floor members. Check that yours are not missing.
Was there any welding to the bulkhead outriggers that could put the bulkhead( hence the A post) a bit out of alignment? 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing

Cheers for the response dinnu

Figured it out now. Rubber pads were all there. Had to raise tub at seatbox end 3mm too get door gap right. New chassis. Thought I’d ask before I removed everything, and was missing something

Cheers
