Suspension: Front & Rear Leaf Springs
Inspired by popular automobile restoration television shows like counts kustoms, counting cars, Leepu and Pitbull, etc. I had planned to restore and customize the entire jeep myself initially. Moreover having worked with my college club Team Predators Racing, my enthusiasm was doubled.
Finding spare parts was a challenge in itself and the closing down of shops, unavailability of parts, etc due to the ongoing pandemic had lessened the chances of quicker procurement. Luckily I found a jeep mechanic close to M.S.E.B. Power House Circle, Rastapeth, Pune who guided me to where I can purchase spares from. Suleman Arab a.k.a. Arab chacha was impressed to know that I d been working on my jeep myself and gave me a short history lesson dating back to the WW2 explaining how the first american jeeps by Willys Overland Motors had entered the Indian markets post war.

Revised
cost estimate for four-laning of Tumakuru-Shivamogga section gets the nod, so officials can get on with the work soon
Connectivity from
Bengaluru to
Shivamogga is set to improve as the Union Transport Ministry has finally approved the revised cost estimate of the four-laning of the much delayed Tumakuru-Shivamogga section. Currently, there are a six-lane (Bengaluru city to Nelamangala) and a four-lane (Nelamangala to Tumakuru by pass) road and from Tumakuru by pass to Shivamogga, it is mostly a two-laned road. Though the four-laning of this road had begun a few years ago, the land acquisition cost had delayed the project.
