full underside plating would be a wise thing to do

Now plating is a bit not so straight as before expedition Right exhaust pipe (directly under differential) is flat ...

Excellent clip. Although watching it makes me cringe thinking about the repair bill I'd incur if I tried it
Looking forward to more

Repair bill:
1. Left rear wheel bearing (on road to Kola);
2. Engine guard plate straightening;
3. Exhaust pipes exchange - may with used ones;
4. Something wrong with a fuel level sensors(shows not less than 3/4 tank );
5. Right rear wheel bearing on road from Kola (due hole on road 3 wheel bolts were off)
6. Missed compressor cover( it was a bit badly fixed, my compressor is relocated under bonnet)
Thats all But road was extremely hard...
D1 has problems rear propshaft, steering rods and seems with chassis frame in rear part...
Oh, i forgot:
7. Rear right ABS sensor - broken in sand.
