MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Replace front chasis rails

I tried to attach 1500 midget to jig today bolting it to the front chassis legs. However when lifting the front of the chasis legs crumbled due to rust. Are these hard to replace, does anyone have any tips

Hi Jack,

I’ve recently done this. There’s a few photos on my blog that might help you: https://www.mgmidgetrestoration.com/2020/04/front-chassis-legs.html

I’ve also taken a photo of the measurements I took.

They came out really well as the front valance and wings seem to fit well.

Let me know if you have any specific questions

Good luck

James
