Actual report

The technical report details chassis reassembly milestone tasks for the Mercedes Benz 190SL restoration project.Work performed this week focused on completing the undercarriage mechanical sub-assemblies. This week we finished the assembling and installation process of the rear axle assembling. Technicians pre-assembled all small hardware, rubber mounts, and spring seats before mounting the restored rear single-joint swing axle unit onto the chassis. Following subframe fitment, brake lines, cables, trailing arms, coil springs, and the central compensating spring mechanism were torque-spec aligned and integrated beneath the painted floorpan.Additional restoration photographs documenting this assembly phase are located at: https://www.rmw.lv/page/en/mercedes-benz-190sl-w121-1958-assembling-and-final-tests
