Bulkhead/Spring Hanger...

With the face of the bulkhead off, i made the decision that the existing spring hanger was solid and could be left. I trimmed the opening and cleaned up the spring hanger.

Using the strengthening flutes in the bulkhead as a guide i cut my repair panel to size. After some trimming and fettling it was a good fit.


In order to prevent further rusting in the bulkhead and spring hanger i gave it a coat of Hammerite and the front and rear bulkheads will be covered in primer once
they are in position.



There is a small repair required at the left hand base of the spring hanger. Some of the floor and sill was cut away to give better access.
