A galvanised replacement chassis is the permanent answer and adds decades to the vehicle. The bulkhead rusts in the footwells and along the top rail, and on a Defender it is the other half of the same decision. The 90 is the short wheelbase and the one that gets used hardest off road, so the parts on it are the ones we see worn out fastest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification and fitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits: Defender 90, chassis code LD 90\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine: 200Tdi, 300Tdi, Td5, 2.4 and 2.2 Puma diesel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction dates: 1983 to 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuality: Galvanised or Painted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: cross referenced to the factory part number for your VIN and confirmed before dispatch, because supersessions on these vehicles are frequent and one printed number would be wrong for somebody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe failure this addresses: bulkhead rot in the footwells and pillars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabour time: about 24 hours, included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoding: none.

Land Rover changes specification mid production, often by VIN rather than by model year, so send the VIN or the registration with the order and we confirm the part against the build data before anything leaves. It takes two minutes and it is the difference between a part that fits and a return. We are an independent Land Rover specialist and parts supplier. We are not Land Rover or Jaguar Land Rover and are not appointed by them; the model names are their trademarks and are used here to describe fitment. Everything we sell is chosen for vehicles that actually get used: towed with, loaded, driven through water and parked in fields, rather than for the brochure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich version to buy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGalvanised is hot dip galvanised after fabrication, inside and out, which is what stops the rust that finished the original.
