w460 G-Wagon Resurrection.

Dear All,

             To all Light-Givers, guardians of Gelande wisdom, and soothsayers:-

          the Guntershunter project so far,having managed to remove two broken springs, and shocks ,revealing badly corroded spring and shock consoles upper and lower; and ascertained part No.s:-

• Console right shock: A460 320 17 78.
• Console left shock:    A460 320 1678.
• Console for rear spring: A460 320 2078.

        Does anybody happen to know the Part No. for the rear axle lower spring mount,(  is it a part that would translate from a Land Rover Defender ?).

       What would be the most economically viable avenue to pursue these parts...?

      Is it necessary to Jack the cab 6" clear of the chasis , in order to facilitate the Weld.....?

      If so, are there any components attached that one should be wary of, ie. the Lines and gearbox..?

        Sincerely appreciate all the Help and serendipity received so far , as it has been an absolute Godsend.........!!

                                         Thankyou.

                                         Gavin...(Guntershunted Munter Magnet..von Unter the Bonnet..!)
