Chassis to fit the 6 cylinder engined vehicles. The chassis is specific to this engine as cross members are moved back to give room for the longer engine / gear box combination. Numerous extra mounting points are fitted for the fuel pumps and exhaust system. Built as a production chassis this is a direct swap for your original chassis but we utilise some later Series 3 parts, which makes the manufacture quicker and easier thus keeping costs down. This does not alter the functionality of the product or the overall appearance when fitted to the vehicle. The chassis comes galvanized as standard, supplied with a removable gear box cross member and chassis bushes fitted, all holes are drilled and tapped UNF after galvanizing. Chassis are available as Truck / Pick Up (2/3 door) or Station Wagon (5 door).

When we first approached them back in 2005 they were keen to listen and explore all options. This lead to three very individual Defender based race cars that dominated podiums across Europe in Trophy raid and winch challenge events from 2006 to 2015. These cars also attended events in the USA and Africa where again they showed their pedigree taking podium positions.
We are proud to work with Richards and still use their superb chassis’ to this day on tow cars, show cars and on some of our race cars. They are simply the best Landrover chassis money can buy.
