After selling my Jimny years ago it is time to start a new project
It is a 2007 Jimny and the first thing i got done was a snorkel. problem is this uncovered quite a bit of rust under the body. I decided to get it all sorted and repaired so this is where we are at the moment

Just to add to the previous post, this is a quick overview of what will be done: Possible i missed a step or 2.
BTW this is being done in a garage, not by me.
1. Remove all require parts to access as much as possible. (Done)
2. Sandblasting
3. Weld and repairs
4. Galvanizing
5. Inner chassis treatment with some sort of wax.
6. Put it all back together

They are charging me around €3.5k
They gave me the figure once it was taken apart. I thought it was very reasonable and they are certified to do this work for DOE in Ireland.

Do you have a picture of how the rubber sat back in on that mount...
I started just replacing the whole mounting to simplify things on repairs.
