    Putting a Jeep in the bed!

    I think a duece with a M37 in the bed and a mule in the bed of the M37 would look pretty neat going down the road.

    7.5' meyer plow on m1009 any guys with experience?

    While I don't have a M1009 I do have a M1028 w/a blizzard plow setup and I do lose clearance and the approach angle is greatly reduced with the truckside plow bracket on the truck. I don't use the truck offroad (other than collecting firewood) as I have a Unimog 404 for offroad adventures. I...

    2 1/2 or 5 ton?

    Without a pic it's hard for us to give you an opinion. Copy and paste the pic. Nevermind looks like someone already identified it.

    Iraq gets lots of HMMWVs

    That's hilarious...maybe it's just my lack of sleep? I'll have to reread this again in that am and see if I still find it as funny.

    Battery choice

    If you have to get Optimas I would get the yellow top since they are a deep cycle and can be discharged/recharged more times than the red top.

    Looking at a 404

    -45-50 mph is top speed unless you're going down a hill with a tailwind. Slightly kidding but 45-50 is the speed that they are happiest at. -Other than swapping engines for the M-130 or a diesel the only performance upgrade is a head swap which I have read has just ok results as far as money...

    Buying an Original Unimog 404

    Still curious why you chose a 404? It looks pretty good from the pics. No oil leaks from the engine, transmission or axles. It is missing a few miscellaneous parts however but they might be separate or you could purchase them from a vendor. I personally wouldn't pay 10k for it however in the...

    Buying an Original Unimog 404

    First question is what do you want to do with the 404? Why a 404 and not a different model? Pics are worth a 1000 words.... Seriously tho post up some pics it will help some of us who are more familiar with the 404 give you an opinion on it. I personally wouldn't take anyone's word on...

    Unimog SEE FLU-419 Winch question

    No the Unimog pictured isn't mine or my friends so I don't know what it is parked on. It was a picture I found online and he wants a winch like the one pictured for the front of his SEE FLU-419.

    Unimog SEE FLU-419 Winch question

    Yes it is for the Mercedes Benz Unimog SEE FLU-419. While I am not an expert this is the only example that I've seen of a winch on the front of a 419 (that looks stock). I don't actually own one but I was trying to get an answer for a friend of mine.

    404 Cylinder head help needed

    UPDATE: Scott from expedition imports responded to the same thread on another forum and advised me: "Did you pull the cylinder head bolts INSIDE the chain tensioner galley? You may have to move the tensioner arm to get at one of them. There should be a total of 4 "small" bolts at the front of...

    404 Cylinder head help needed

    So my engine wasn't running very well so I decided to pull a couple of spark plugs to check them and make sure they weren't fouled out. Once I got the plugs out I noticed that they had antifreeze on them. So I figure that either the head has a crack/hole in it or there is a problem with the...
