Hi all,
re my 2010 Puma 110 Time has come to look at my options for the crossmember or chassis. 100% need a new crossmember but given the cost etc. I'm considering a chassis swap instead. Any recommendations in the Edinburgh/central belt area? Thanks in advance Cheers, Andy... Edinburgh, Scotland http://24heuer.com |

thanks both.
I'm waiting for a quote from engine710. Lead-time is quite long though. Cheers, Andy... Edinburgh, Scotland http://24heuer.com |

Engine 710 are good but you’re paying for the location and image IMO, I’ve had work done by them and was very happy but there’s options here.
Gibsons auto service is also worth getting a quote from, JS Walker on the a71 near dalmahoy is also a good option, it looks like a dump but they were very good with my 110 when it needed it welding. |

Another recommendation for Engine 710. They are not the cheapest, but they are very good and that's reflected by how long you have to wait to get a slot for any work to be done due to their popularity.

Thanks for all the names so far.
I've tried a few. Also contacted Tayside Land Rover. Some wanted to see the vehicle first and due to work I've not had the time. I'm still deliberating over what to do. TBH though the crossmember is looking a lot more expensive than I expected. So, I thought if it's that much maybe I should look at a re-chassis instead - but wow! that's not cheap either these days. Both options are a significant chunk of cash. Cheers, Andy... Edinburgh, Scotland http://24heuer.com |

I maybe out of touch with labour rates for things, but does that include painting the new one? |
