contents We prove that every locally inner (class-preserving) endomorphism of adjoint Chevalley groups and their elementary subgroups over commutative rings is inner for the root systems A1, A2, B2 (assuming 2 is invertible in the ring), and for G2 (assuming 2 and 3 are invertible). As a consequence, these groups are Sha-rigid. The proofs are direct and do not rely on classification of automorphisms or structural results about injective endomorphisms.
