That's the rust treatment finished now:

Offside:











Nearside:











I've put the epoxy mastic on very thick so it's not the prettiest but as it's all behind the plastic covers I wasn't too concerned about that.

The jacking points on the car you can't remove easily without knocking the pin in the way. These are now not available from Land Rover so I didn't want to knock the pin into the sill. I drilled a 3mm hole in the fixing, screwed in a self tapper and grabbed the screw with a pair of pliers and hit the pliers with a hammer.







Now all I need to do is get the covers back on and start re-assembly.

I did go round all the wheel nuts with a machine polisher and whilst it was in the air on the ramp I did the exhaust tips too as it's much easier then doing it when it's on the floor!











Just need my wheels back now! Very Happy

David, probably teaching you to suck eggs but if you go in the boot side panels you can get to the double skinned rear arches and flood between them with anti rust treatment, I like the Dinitrol ML with a long application wand you can reach the whole arch. I did fatty off roader with it years ago, I saw the car a couple of years ago and it still has rust free arches.... Thumbs Up Pete

Might as well do it justice given the wheels are all being refurbished! Very Happy

Cheers Pete, I’ll give that a go. I’ll probably use the Lanoguard I bought.

I was also going to pop the trim panel that houses the rear number plate lights off the upper tailgate and try and fill that up too. 2002 4.6 Vogue SE - Alveston Red with Lightstone Leather
