Very nice job
😂 brilliant video happy I could help with the stone ship and yes I will see you later 😊
Haha 😂 bens dancing shoes are polished and ready …..
And folk complain about Land Rover's. I repaired a 2010 Hilux earlier this year, it looked like it had been living in the sea it was so corroded. Currently on with an Iveco DAily in the workshop. Its 23yrs old and has a few rot issues.
I like those chassis stiffener plates, if a Nivara comes my way with a similar problem I would like to buy them if you can supply them? Top job lads!
Let me guess the Hilux was between 07/10 😂😂
Great video and very informative, thanks for the additional advice.
Top job men as per usual. (Sitting) lol 🤣😂
Sitting 😂😂😂😂
Great vid today lads!!!
Glad you enjoyed it …please share and subscribe 😄
Great video looking forward to the next one (standing)😂
Thanks see you in the next one ☝️
Do you not coat inside the chassis as my last one of these rotted bad from the inside.
I bought a 2008 pathfinder with a very rotten chassis on the offside back wheel area a few months ago for £600 and my brothers mate came and welded it for me. The crazy thing is who i got it of paid £7.5k two years ago and put new discs and pads and back tyre's on before I got it. I think I got a canny bargain don't you?💚💛❤️👍
Sounds like a good car to me 😊😊😊 get it jacked up ⬆️
@@JWFabrication1 it's an idea but I haven't got much coin. I do need to sell my other 2007 one though but it needs a battery and a puncher fixed. It's only got one month mot also. I didn't plan on getting the New one just got asked if I wanted it and offered £500 and got it for £600 because they were told it was a write off.👍
@rastaralph7154 how bad is it underneath
@@JWFabrication1 on which one?
Both 😂
There’s a guy in Scotland that makes replacement chassis’s from 4mm steel plate and they’re a life saver , dropped the car off with him ,he called 5 days later “ it’s ready “ came its a brand new MOT , totally under sealed and a guarantee. Cost less than getting it welded bit by bit over a few years and having the thought that in may break with the next pothole. What a difference it has made ,the truck ( that’s what it feels like now ) is rock solid and holds the road the way it did when new . Towing is now a breeze .
You got any pictures
Hi Jeffrey, could you share any contacts for this guy. Cheers
Great video, get that spray booth tidied up lad.
Looks like a crack den in there!
That is tidy….. you should of seen it before 😂
How nice is the workshop..
Make anything you want.
Proper.
You can make time tho 🕰️ 😂🫣
Top job lads. Love the D40s just about to take my old girl around Australia
Get on…. That will be some fun, I loved oz when I traveled 😊
Nice job of that and the weld is great clean and strong being a welder my self of 25 years you could do with a ramp in one of the units would make it easier for you selfs customer will be very happy with that as that job will out last the rest of the truck now 👍 to your question stand up
Thanks means a lot …. 👌🏻👌🏻
Outstanding lads,that was surgery.👏👍
Nice work boys 😎❤️👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks 👍
Random banana in the Time-lapse love it
Someone spotted it 🍌 🍌 🍌
That's a professional repair not like the crappy job on a friend's truck.
Good old colin giving you some upol ( cast offs 😂😂) ……didn’t give you the good stuff silverhook!!! He just posted that he doesn’t use the upol anymore lol
Ask him why he has gone onto silverhook 🫣
car sales call them knackered navaras
Things aren’t built to last these days, they’re built to fail - planned obsolescence
That’s why we like to keep them going 🫠
not true in this instance. the reason for the d40 chassis snapping is due to the fact that in Japan they chassis was dipped vertically before final assembly, but in Spain ( where the European D40's are made) they were dipped horizontally. The chassis has a bend in it, and when horizontally dipped, air stops the paint from reaching the higher parts in the dipping process. So they don't get paint on them, start to rust form the inside and then snap, the Nissan solution was to spray the inside of the chassis rails with etcher or something, For completeness these boys need to do the same.
the Thailand built Nissan's are far better built than the Spanish made rubbish
I'm an MOT tester and I issued a refusal on one of these for a corroded chassis.. totally rotten..the owner had just bought it too.
"cracking" repair guys 👌👍
Oh yes! Like the pun lol 😂
top job lads
If we saw 40,000 on one of them in mid wales without a snapped chassis you were doing good ..my mate repaired half a dozen or more in one year .if it wasn’t that it was buggered engines .cams .injector pumps bottom ends knocking ..and the thing is most of em were metallic blue 😂😂
Folder not a scruncher always stand up
Nice job done.
Time to invest in a car lift?
Unusual for a d40 to have issues thought it was the older navara
No these D40 are really bad for snapping be we love doing them 😁
Hope I don't have the issues with the np300
Yet another great vid, for a moment I thought you was gonna weld up that creak in Ben's rear end, !!
Crack
Don’t have a welder that big 😮
Any chance of getting a step file for the chassis plate?
You want to buy some chassis plates
@@JWFabrication1 no by the time it’d get to Ireland it’d be a very expensive part. If I could buy a drawing or cad file of that plate, I could cut it myself.

How much is something like this to do?
Fantastic video thank you wouild it pay to drill a few holes on the underside of the chassis rails to allow water to drain.
They have hole but are normal full of mud, dirty and rust
Hi do you do this for customers mine needs doing how much would it cost also where in the country are you many thanks Tony
Yes this was a customer car and it’s roughly about £1200
We are based on Thirsk North Yorkshire
👌🏻
@@JWFabrication1 many thanks your a long way up from me but keep up the good work on the d40s
Stand up an wipe lads!!
Ever had any experience of doing similar to a ranger 07 - shes getting a little swiss cheesy in the obvious places!
We’ve done Nissan, Toyota’s, l200 but not a ranger yet …. They are all the same tho 😉
What sort of price and lead time we looking at for a welding up - already tub off, tank out and needle scaled?
It all depends on how bad it is but this job was £1500
It’s not an advert for this pickup. Who makes the best chassis?
They are all as shit in different ways 😊
havent you got a concrete floor ?
How many did Nissan buy back
Not a clue
Top job this lads how many amps u using
Not sure which part your watching put probably 100amps 🫣
@@JWFabrication1 welding looks perfect
Nice job guys! 👌🏻
Thank you 😊
How much do you charge for this. And where about you based mate
We are in Thirsk North Yorkshire and it depends how bad but around a grand
Hi mow much was all of this work cheers
Not as much as a new truck 🫣
These trucks had an appalling’NCAP’ rating .
How much mate for the Job
Depend on how rotten but just over a grand
Why stand up when you can sit down and wipe. 👌
Ben will have answer this question 🫣😂
😂 sometimes you have to stand up to make sure your fully clean when your eating things like Carolina Reaper chilli’s! Running out like lava! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sit down 😂😂
🫣😂💩
The metal is Chinese, seen this many times, the metal is not forged properly.
🫣🫣
Oh and stand up and wipe and inspect the results!!! 🤣💩
Trying to be funny & failing miserably 😒
Not trying to be anything but myself …..
Why?
They were recall for this problem OMG
Yes but if the picks didn’t need it they got nothing and sent on there way
