Jimny Rear Floor
Posted: Mon Jan 13, 2014 12:34 pm
All though my MOT isnt due till June, im slowly doing the odd little bits to make sure it passes.
My rear floor isnt too bad but will need welding in a few places. Ive had a look and weighed up all the costs and i think that by the time i have cut out all the rot, made patches and stuck them all back in again it would be cheaper to buy a new rear floor, drill the spots and re spot in.
I did think about cutting it out and just seam welding a new flat sheet in, but then i loose the rear seats etc and will probably have to take the fuel tank out (i recommend doing this anyway as i set a MK3 golf on fire and my work shop a few months ago welding a roll cage in for banger racing, but old habits die hard )
So cost of rear floor brand new from Suzuki: £181.42 plus VAT
Part number: 62111 - 81A11
3 day delivery time, i got mine from my local Suzuki dealerhttp://www.suzuki.co.uk/cars/dealers/tjvickers
Might be a useful sticky
