Here's a 416 with some mods to it BUT...I know this truck as a friend currently owns it and cut off the jungle gym crap and is restoring it to it's formerly professionally built status. What the jungle gym owner didn't realize is the mogs chassis is part of the suspension and they're designed...
Currently owning 2 A2's and a 406 Unimog I can tell you that they are worlds apart. The 416 is a good truck with the 20" longer wheel base and stock 110hp engine and fast axles. Oh, and factory PS, disc brakes, air LOCKERS and suspension articulation right out of the box. They WILL go places...
Two complete trucks on eBay right NOW (07.10.11) for under $30,000 complete. There are also some for over $100,000. Usually there's an H1 in the $25K to $35K range. Type in humvee in the eBay search box.
Some of the late 70's Ford medium duty trucks with the 3208 CATs had a steering box that bolted to a heavy bracket above the frame. The bolt pattern of box to bracket is the same as the stock deuce to the frame. So technically, it IS a bolt in and mounts inside the frame in the same location...
Nice 'Flying Tiger' paint!
The red truck two posts up looks like a late model U500 truck. I've seen them used for over $100,000. Awesome trucks though and with the ability to have a GVWR in the lower 30,000 lbs area! I think they're around 280hp and near 800'lbs of torque. Yeah...that's...
That truck on the last two pics now has a fully functional level-wind set up on it thanks to the donation of an XM757 PTO gear box! :mrgreen: Thanks M35 Tom for the deal on the unit and thanks Bjorn for drawings and pics.
The PTO drive needs to spin reverse rotation for these big winches...
The T-case PTO also has a tapered shaft and a nut size I will wish you good luck in finding if you need one. Something like 1" 24 or something really popular like that. :) I took a metric nut that was close, cut the threads out then cut the threads I needed on my Clausing lathe. The T-case...
When I got my 406 Mog the guy I got it from never did anything to it so it was technically STILL in the guys name HE got it from in Georgia. I found a registration card for the Georgia guy and tracked him down. He WAS OH SO KIND to make me up a bill of sale for the truck. I took that bill of...
The M37 is a 4x4 platform that you can put in basically whatever you feel like. The later M715's were basically the same deal. I put a 6.2 with an NV4500 and followed that with an NP205 in an M715 and it was a decent set up. The 6.2 with the manual tranny definately has a mechanical feel as...
Look up M35Tom and click on the link in his signature line. He knows about as much as Dana/Spicer on the 3053 transmissions.
I ran one for YEARS in BBC powered and Rockwelled M715 and the new owner is still running her around. Those transmissions had actually been used at the Bonneville...
Ummm...not quite. Lets start with the cylinder firing and pushing the piston down. How it works is it NEEDS the blower to pressurize the intake side of the engine. When the piston travels downward on the power stroke (they have no intake valves, just exhaust) after it gets so far down the...
Seriously...do you know the Gross Combined Weight Rating of the Dodge? I know in PA, once you're over 10,001lbs on the trailer GVWR, it MUST be added to GVWR or the truck. For example: A 2010 we have at work, 3500 Chevrolet with an 11,200 GVWR and a GCWR or 18,200...but that rating is if it...
