    So Cal fall desert trip

    I'll make my schedule work for whenever everybody decides is the best weekend. Thurs night would be a good time for me to leave also. I just remembered I will have a brand new addition to the family by then so I will probably have to bring my 2 girls so momma can have some quiet time with the...

    First Problem on the Unimog 404

    On my Mog, one day I had spark, the next day I did'nt. So I bought the entire Pertronix ignition and installed it, still no spark. After much trouble shooting I found that the ignition key had a 3rd position for the ignition to turn on and I had'nt been turning it all the way on :oops: . It was...

    Modifications to my Bobbed Deuce

    Cool Mods, My ex 404 Unimog had a nice fold down ladder that was about as long as yours when folded down and half as long folded up, very useful.

    1st BOB JOB!??

    Looks great! I have to say driving a bobbed duece is much more fun and user friendly with the only negative being that its no longer a real M35A2 . A bobbed M35A3 would be even better and if I ever get one, I will bob it. I moved my rear axle back 11 inches. No particular reason other than I...

    Free trailer.

    Great offer! I wish I was closer, there's nothing better than free green iron! I let 3 brand new M105 trailer beds go because I was too lazy to go pick them up. I never thought of offering them up to anyone else. I have to remember to think outside the box sometimes.

    Just picked up a 406

    I love the 406 Mogs. Cant wait to see pics. Definately join the mog mailing list, great group of helpful guys. I have had great dealing with Scott at Expedition Imports as his customer service is top notch. IIRC tires are a bit pricey, but then again prices for Unimog parts aren't like surplus...

    Sarge rides again!

    I ended up coming back from Mammoth a day early. Sarge is going to have an amazing ride through the Eastern Sierras. It was an absolutely beautiful drive home. Lots of motorcyclists riding solo. Cant wait to hear about his trip!

    GL at Sierra / Herlong (Kudos)

    I just picked up my M101 trailer from Sierra Army Depot earlier this week. Just wanted to pass along the great experience I had with Tim. He was by far the best/friendliest site manager I have dealt with in my 10 or so GL dealings. Very customer service oriented. He had my trailer pulled up and...

    So Cal fall desert trip

    Count me in. I think I'll leave the wife and some kids at home this time so I can stay the full duration of the trip. October should be perfect out there.

    Sarge rides again!

    Congrats Sarge, Disregard my previous post on the other thread, I didnt realize you already made arrangements to pick her up. Its going to be a great trip for you. You'll probably pass by me on the 395 as I head home. If you hear a motorhome honking crazily at you , pull over, it will be me...

    Cheap M35A3, I'm eating my words...

    Yes Kenny, If I got one I would have to bob it. Is that wrong of me?

    picked up my M101 and stopped at White Owl

    I'm picking up my M101 next week, only problem is I have to drive 8hrs each way to get it and had to spend $600 on a tow hitch, power steering cooler, transmission cooler and wiring harness from Honda to keep the transmission warranty valid when used for towing. My wife just doesnt understand...

    Cheap M35A3, I'm eating my words...

    It was on my watch list, the last 3 that went out of Barstow I bid on up to $6500, I'm glad I didnt follow the end of this auction otherwise I might have gotten suckered in again. My wife would have castrated me. Well worth the price IMHO.

    Looking for Barstow contact

    A few years ago, I was allowed to go check out a truck I had won there and the guy even let me take the batteries home to charge them before my EUC had cleared. My last truck I got from there, Dave the site manager, would not let me come out until the EUC was clear, .that was back in January. I...

    Fuel filter

    Go to the resources tab at the top of the page and click on technical articles. Devilman did an article with all part numbers needed and step by step pics on how to install the parts from napa. I just purchased a filter base and filter from napa and it was around $70 out the door with tax.
