It was interesting to learn why the fishplates are cut triangulated at the ends. I always had assumed it was to get a longer weld compared to a straight edge.

@bennyjahmin39534 ай бұрын
Awesome build bro. Since your first episode ive been putting together a build in my head. Hopefully one day i can start collecting parts for it. Couple of questions, Im guessing you will get a GVM upgrade as the rover is something like 2.7t? Are you still going to get to keep the 4t towing? How much weight are you adding is chassis bracing/brackets vs what you have cut off? I didnt think you were meant to weld within a certain distance (10 or 20mm, i cant remember) from the radius of the corners of the chassis, as in if you were to look at the box section cut through from east to west of the chassis rails.
@mattkinsela4 ай бұрын
Hey Ben, I’ll probably end up going through all this in different videos along the way, they’re great points. We can up the gvm to whatever it passes testing for without exceeding the max limits of the parts I use, so for example the 105 diffs are good for more so long as the brakes and wheels etc are too we can run that gvm, but the chassis needs to have new load testing done to suit with all the new modifications I’m doing to it. The radius thing you are right in some circumstances from my understanding it depends on the load of the bracket and the way it’s applied etc.
@leighchaseling71024 ай бұрын
Love it so far What’s the reason for not protecting the unpainted steel prior to welding ?
@mattkinsela4 ай бұрын
Once it’s all fully welded it’ll be getting coated inside and out with a polyurethane primer to seal it all up
@leighchaseling71024 ай бұрын
Got ya ok so the weld and the coating essentially will seal in between the two surfaces 👍
@darrydondon4 ай бұрын
With the chassis bracing plates you put on did you have to prime the back of the steel? Are you worried about rust building up?
@mattkinsela4 ай бұрын
Hi mate, no we will seal it all up after, will cover this when we come to painting the chassis
@grangerdoopey29713 ай бұрын
I have a dumb question about leveling out the chassis obviously you level it out driver to passenger or left to right but what about front to back? Do you just base that off what you want in terms of ride height?
@mattkinsela3 ай бұрын
I clamp a long bit of rhs or similar to the bottom of the long flat section of chassis through the middle and level that. You could also use a chassis drawing and get some dimensions off that to work with, but this works and less maths.
@JackNoble-xz5nz4 ай бұрын
Super informative series mate! One question are you priming between the chassis and bracing plates or do you have another solution to stop corrosion ?
@mattkinsela4 ай бұрын
I’ll cover this when we get to painting the chassis, after speaking to the painters short of painting the whole chassis in a decent primer and then grinding half of it back off to weld the plates on the solution was to just weld it all up then we will seal inside and out with a polyurethane primer to prevent any water and stuff getting in there
@JackNoble-xz5nz4 ай бұрын
Yeah ok good stuff, loving the series so far anyway mate! Keen to follow along!
@JakeScaramuzzi4 ай бұрын
Hey Matt, what sort of rust proofing is required when laminating the chassis like that? With final paint not able to get between the layers, have you ever seen a problem with rust under the fish plates? Always wondered what I should do when laminating steel on different projects. Have often painted first but that obviously gets compromised during the welding process. Cheers, Jake.
