Chassis checks

The easiest way to inspect a Land Rover chassis is to get underneath it with the vehicle raised on a lift. However, there is much that can be learned on your hands and knees with a flashlight, plus a hammer so you can hear the sound of the metal when tapped, and a poking device to prod areas that look suspect. Engage gear and handbrake with the vehicle on firm, level ground before going underneath. Fitting a new replacement chassis is very commonplace these days, but it is still a costly pursuit so it is very important to examine the chassis properly. This applies to your own vehicle or one that you are considering buying.
