Toyota Hilux Inner Sill Repair – MOT Welding Repairs, Glastonbury

A Toyota Hilux came in with the inner sills eaten through with rust — exactly the kind of corrosion that gets you a corroded sills failure on an MOT. There were no replacement panels available to buy for a truck this age, so every section of the new sill had to be fabricated from scratch: steel cut and shaped by hand to match the original profile, then welded in properly rather than filled or patched over. Once the fresh steel was in place it was treated and finished so the rust can't creep back in the same spots. This wasn't a quick bodge, it's proper hand-fabricated welding, the kind of job that keeps a working truck like this on the road for years rather than months. Compare the underside before and after: what was once flaking, rotten steel is now clean, solid, and properly protected. If your 4x4 or pickup has failed its MOT on rotten sills and you can't get hold of replacement panels, this is exactly the sort of chassis and sill welding repair we do. This truck isn't going anywhere anytime soon.
