Friends, you're on Takami Makar's channel. I'm Makar, and in this episode, we've finally reached the most stubborn part of our Shishiga—the suspension. We decided to install long-travel springs, try out new mounts, choose shock absorbers, and try to turn the GAZ-66 into something resembling a rally car.

Along the way, of course, everything went wrong: the clutch hesitates for three seconds, the brakes dive like a Ural, the mounts don't fit, the springs take on a life of their own, and we're drilling, cutting, painting, and arguing about where everything should go.

In the end, you'll see the installation, our attempts to jack up the suspension, and the first field tests. Find out whether it all worked out in the video. Sit back, give it a like, and let's go figure out this iron beast!

Like if you respect Soviet technology.
