The galvanised coating could, potentially, crack with chassis flexing, allowing in water and subsequent corrosion.
The factory have been fitting galv chassis since the late 90s though.

Why do they not recommend galvanizing? My 1973 4/4/4 was re-chassied 20+ years ago, and unlike the original ungalvanized one was after about 18 years, is quite sound. That original one had new box cross members fitted and repaired and the rearmost one re-plated.

I meant the G.E.E. ad which I cannot find in the July issue. The price list on their web site refers: http://www.geeltd.co.uk/index.php/chassis-prices.html - I have not used them so cannot comment on the accuracy of this information.
