I had to correct the panhard rod, because we made it totally wrong. It should go like the upper steering rod goes - if the right steering rod's side is low and the left is up, the panhard rod should go the same way. Stupid mistake that I had to correct...

The panhard rod will be parallel to the steering rods when I'll mount springs :) And it'll also get an adjustment.

Reinforced axles. I don't think I'll manage to bend them now ;)
A- and radius arms have been painted red, now we're going to clean and paint axles and chassis black.

It is really cool being able to see the structure of a Jimny. B)

Do it right - use Hammerite

Actually nothing to see. We have mounted body on the chassis and now we're working on the engine, gearbox and reduction case. I will post some pics when there's something interesting to see :)
