SERIES III STRIP-DOWN – DAY 1 – LAND ROVER SERIES III GALVANISED CHASSIS SWAP AND UPGRADES – LRM
The time has come! Land Rover Monthly editor Martin Domoney and Land Rover Life editor Neil Watterson have got the tools ready and are ready for a day of taking this Series III V8 to bits, ready to be rebuilt onto a MAER galvanised chassis. How far will they get?
In this series (pardon the pun) we'll take you along for the ride as we tear the Series III down, fit a new MAER galvanised chassis, and introduce some upgrades along the way. This series will also appear as a step-by-step tech guide in Land Rover Monthly magazine, so be sure to check it out.

    It’s all the other repairs and work that you discover whilst doing this (like axle/steering relay/bulkhead/rear tub etc etc that take the time). Working on gravel ( esp on a slope like I and many others have to do is a real pain esp for retrieving dropped items). Thanks for keeping it real for us home mechanics who have a similar setup, limited space and not a nice fully equipped 4 post air conditioned workshop. It is just such a pity that you did not spend £50 to paint the chassis for the next owner, Galv looks great for a while after that it links crap & rust starts to come though with our salty roads. Preventable with a couple coats of good chassis paint & nice black Finnish to last for another 50+ years.

      There was quite a few things that needed sorting, thankfully nothing major and had a replacement tub prepped ahead of time. Gravel is fun, I'll be finding washers for years to come! Not painting the chassis was purely a time thing, it'll get protected by wax inside.

    Martin I'm thrilled you and LRM are documenting this rebuild. I'm in the States and am at the front end of my frame-off restoration of my '83 Series 3 SWB. I've been corresponding with Richard Hall who has been very generous in providing some guidance on converting my 2.25 diesel to a 2.5 petrol (i.e., 17H). I will be building this all on a new galvanized Marsland chassis with a new galvanized bulkhead. Your videos will be really helpful! Thanks again. ~Pete (South Carolina & LRM subscriber)

      No. Although they used the same spring mounts there are some significant differences to a 1 Ton. 1 Tons had the straight six petrol engine, ENV or twin Salisbury axles, lower ratio steering box, different transfer box etc. They are also incredibly rare. An easy reference point is that the military never bought them. (Except the IIA TACR1s)
