Disassembly

We will execute the following steps and carefully take car of the following points when disassembling the Lada Niva.

  1. Drain the fluids: Drain all the fluids, including the oil, coolant, and fuel, before starting the disassembly process.
  2. Remove the body panels: Start by removing the body panels, such as the hood, doors, fenders, and tailgate. This may require removing bolts, screws, and clips that hold them in place.
  3. Remove the engine and transmission: Remove the engine and transmission by disconnecting hoses, cables, and electrical connectors. This requires a lot of care and expertise to avoid damage to the engine or transmission.
  4. Remove other parts: Remove other parts such as the suspension, brakes, exhaust system, and drivetrain. This may require removing bolts, screws, and clips that hold them in place.
  5. Label and store the parts: As you remove parts, label them and store them in a safe place. This will make it easier to reassemble the car later.
  6. Clean and inspect the parts: Clean and inspect the parts to check for damage or wear. Replace any damaged or worn parts as necessary.
  7. Preparing the car for its paint job.
