    I'm about ready to open a Russian section on the forum for you guys..
    Actually we found good home for us on Isuzu & Opel 4x4 Club Forum (http://forum.4x4club.ru). The guys there have a big experience in maintaining their Rodeos/Amigos/Fronteras, Troopers/Montereys so they always have something to suggest during hard times.

    Uncle, was there ANY damage to your VX or the others after coming down from the jump? How did the suspension handle? All ok still?

    I am still amazed at the photos. I can't wait to see some video!

    We didn't noticed any damage, though I believe it does not extend life for suspension

    And here are videos:
