I would like to see how he did the duals with the 53’s on there. Anybody know how? I assume some sort of spacer between rims.

The truck is in Las Cruces, NM. I pass by it almost everyday and I can tell you for sure it’s not photoshop. It’s one mean looking truck for sure!

Dang, those boxes are heavy, no wonder the comm 404s are so slow!

I have been thinking about it and maybe a tdi would be a good way to go. They are a fairly cheap engine as well as being small. The only concern i would have would be the rpm range the tdi would have. Also, in the mean time I am probably going to pull the comm box off of the 404 for "weight...

Thank you for the words of wisdom! Sounds like it is a feasible task, but doesnt sound very fun. Yes, I have access to heavy duty transmission jacks and lifts so that should help out a bit. Now all I got to do is muster up the motivation to do it!

Thank you, that helps out. Has anyone actually tackled this project and have any first hand experience with tearing apart the transfercase?

So I have googled and looked around and have not really found out how to do this. Story is my transfer case is leaking on my m925a1 in between the two halfs and it seems to be getting worse. I know in order to properly fix this I would need to drop the case and tear it apart and just reseal the...

Sounds like I got some work cut out for me. Hopefully it turns out well. Should be alot more fun to drive with a turbo and jakes to mess around with!

Not surprising most the stuff wouldn't transfer over from a nhc to an ntc. But do you think it would be beneficial to swap injectors, and pump as well from the ntc? I already have everything, the only added cost is going to be injector o-rings. I also plan on running a pyro and boost gauge as...

I just picked up a big cam 400 that is complete. (Which I got for free) Only downside is I was told it has a rod knock. I was planning on using it as a donor for the nhc250 in my m925a1 for a turbo swap and probably add jakes to it as well. What I was wondering. Should i swap the jakes...

Although that sounds very tempting, it also sounds very expensive! Well in the unimog, it technically is a 2 door Mercedes Benz convertible. All I have to do is tell the chicks that I drive that and they will be all over me....... Until they actually see it!

Yeah, I will admit that, propane is good for very steep angles and offroad use. My plans for it are to cruise it around on the weekends, maybe take it to the lake and use it as a camper. Since I have two communications boxs (one on the unimog and one on a trailer) I was hoping to fix up the...

Ok so thats good news meaning they can hit 50 if tuned right. That shows I have some room for improvement! I forgot to mention, it has already been converted to 12 volt and has upgraded spark plug wires. Do you think I could run a .025 gap on it, maybe that would help out a tad bit? Honestly I...

Maybe I should do a beehive swap instead of an engine swap. That would make it run real sweet! But yeah, it runs real slow! Will climb over anything, just not fast. @peakbagger Thats what I kind of figured unfortunately. I would like to use it as a weekend excursion camper but I guess I will...

Update on the unimog. Got the old thing running, put a battery in it and it fired up on the first try. Checked all the fluids and drove it around and man is this thing gutless! I checked the air filter and happened to find a wasp nest in there. Cleaned that out and it seemed to pick up some...

Been on the road all day, everything is going good. "Mkcoen" answer is yes, spent two nights in Grangeville. I guess we really lucked out, we left the mountains yesterday afternoon. Thank god we did! That wouldn't have been fun to drive in! Already down into Denver so I guess its a little late...

Update: Well it has been an adventure. Headed up to Kooskia, Idaho leaving Las Cruces, New Mexico on Monday morning. First day made it to Moab, Utah with zero problems. Tuesday, drove therest of the way to Kooskia. 1,400 miles one way. Wednesday morning went up to the property and could finally...

Thank you guys, I appreciate the help! I am used to driving vehicles that lack power as I drive an aircooled vw van!

Man, your're really making me want it! It would be an awsome offroad toy! What to do, what to do....... What kind of engines do these mini beasts have in them?

Unfortunatly I dont have any more pictures of it. I totally agree, it would be an awsome off road camper and I would probably drive it a lot more than my 5 ton since it would actually fit in a parking spot. Thank you guys, I appreciate the help.
