Rear coil mounts

[RobN]

MOT failed:

Both sides rear coils top mounting brackets, are these 503800F000 and 503810F000 the correct parts and is it worth ordering the rubbers, 550340F000 as well?

Advisory:

Fuel Lines, do I need to use genuine 175062X400 and 175102X400, how easy is it to get the clips?

Future Plan:

How to obtain new sills for a SWB?

Checked your thread, the corrosion is on the bracket itself not the chassis. I covered welding during my apprenticeship (almost 50 years ago ) I understand the theory and what is possible but have never had the requirement to put theory into practice. I appreciate a good job and hate paying for work I can do myself, unfortunately in this case I have to use a local garage which will do the weld but minimum fabrication. Hence I have to supply the brackets:doh.

I have used Amayama in the past but in this case I will try https://nissangenuine.com/

I am now retired and treat Terri as my hobby project (keeps me out of the pub, actually my wife keeps me out of the pub). Having driven the T2 for many years, nothing else out there can compete, I aim to keep Terri at least another 25 years (belching diesel fumes, a proper car).

All hail you metal bashers and welders :bow.

Driving in the mud gets your tyres dirty and ruins the carpets :thumbs

WORK - When the fun stops STOP

Experience - what you get just after you needed it.

Wish you luck, I had a quick look and full clutch assembly for my Patrol over £700.00 no thanks, Rick

Ouch!

Have ordered, both brackets and rubbers and post £220. This is an MOT fail and there are not the same number of enthusiasts down here in W Cornwall, case of needs must.

Not a bad price to be honest, Someone on FB was selling ones he fabbed himself but no idea if he still is.

Others have used C channel to bridge the chassis and the coils lay in the channel.
