machine I'd say with that small bed. I like Jim Cathey's better.


I like mine better too, if I only had time/energy to dive
in and fix the axle.  Seems to me that the short bed on mine
was actually a Doka bed, so this Doka really got shortchanged!
(Mine could be about 1' longer, so if it were a custom bed I
think that's what it would have had.)

Those Doka's do go for  a premium.  And like-new condition
adds a bit.  Mine was $10,500, FOB Germany, with winch, crane,
and dump bed.  Some time ago, however.

That's what I meant. Who's got $24k in cash sitting around to pay for a 4x4 toy, 
and wants to spend it on a 30 year old truck that can't go hwy speeds?
That's a very limited market these days. Meanwhile, I can go out and buy a 2008

[MBZ] Mog Ride

2007-06-21 Thread Dan Weeks
With a few recent posts about Mogs, I thought I'd add my impressions  
after my first ride in a Mog last week, 100 miles or so through the  
Sierra Madres in Mexico. I rode a '58 former NATO troop carrier that  
an outfitter takes touristas like myself for rides in. Had an '00 2  
liter 6 cyl 75 hp gas engine in it, a replacement for the original  
diesel. Vehicle was in excellent shape. Was overkill for the dirt  
road cruising and occasional stream fording we did--my Vanagon could  
have taken the same route (much faster!), tho a car could not have.  
Max speed for that rig was 48 mph, which we never saw--hit 40 a  
couple times, but any grade slowed us down very quickly, due to the  
weight of the vehicle--we were very lightly loaded.

They are very large, heavy machines. Very wide-ratio transmissions,  
with two crawler gears and 4 road gears. There is no doubt they will  
go through anything at all, but the widely spaced gears, and in this  
one's case, a high-revving OHC six and a very clunky shifter that  
prevented quick gear changes meant that there was no chance you could  
upshift on a grade of any steepness, and much of the ride was done  
with the engine bumping up against the rev limiter. Impressed me that  
it would be not nearly as fun to drive as my brother's 1942  
International KB7--that's also also heavy and underpowered, but with  
a low-compression, slow-turning, tourquey stroker of a six and ten  
close-ratio gears, there's always plenty of tourque on tap and the  
perfect ratio for whatever you want to do. Engine braking was also  
awkward due to the wide gears.

But the ride was quite comfortable, considering, due to the huge  
tires, and in spite of its great height, was quite stable. They said  
they could ford 5' of water, due to sealed engine, snorkle, etc.  
However, the battery went dead, and we all (6 of us) had to push  
start it once. That was a kick.

So, that's all I know about Mogs. Street-legal tractor pretty well  
sums it up, and I have no doubt they're a blast at doing real serious  
off-roading, or playing with the various cranes, side-dump boxes, and  
all the other toys you can get on one. But as a truck--nah. That's  
kind of missing the point, I think, like using a stock MBZ diesel for  
drag racing. Can be done, but why?

Just picked up four Jersey barriers (more like retaining wall blocks)

They're 2.5'x2'x6' each, rather heavy.  The neighbor who I got to

Thanks for your generous offer, but I'll have to decline. However I
might consider $25.K If you throw in some used floor mats for my SDL.

a lot of them in the 60s had the 2.2 liter M180 engine, same as the 220Sb

a lot if them made it to the US.  (not a Mog expert)

I was just curious. My dad was a contractor for a big Austrian logging
company to service their fleet of Mogs that were used as skidders, loaders,
brush grinders, snow plows/blowers and transporters and what not. All
diesels with MB diesel powerplants on the back for the attachments. Thats
where I learned early how to get the black grease out from under the
fingernails - cut them to the skin.

Most all 404's, which were mostly various army trucks, were M180 
gassers.

Gas wasn't that popular by model designation, but they seemed to make a
_lot_ of those 404's!

Re: [MBZ] mog for sale

2005-11-29 Thread Bob DuPuy
You've got it right. The model with the largest production run was the
gas powered 404.1 used by many nato countries and was powered by the
M180. There were also some 404.0s produced in the early 70s with an
updated cab and the higher out put M130.  All the other Mogs are
diesel powered, Including the 416 DOKA I'm selling which is powered by
the direct injection OM352. The DOKA refers to the relatively rare
four door cab option.

 Hi Loren,

 I would expect that there is a Mog in that power range, the question is
how
 much money you have to spend? A good condition unimog is not cheap but
will
 deliver the goods. I was talking to a bloke who owns seven of them and he
 reckons that he got 15,000hrs out of one without having to touch the
motor.
 Not all mogs come with a rear PTO, most second hand mogs are ex army and
 used mainly as 4x4 medium trucks.
 If you want a rear PTO that would narrow your search even more. It might
be
 possible to attach a PTO to a standard mog but you would have to ask a
 expert.
 Try this mob for more info http://www.unimog.net/

  I came across the UK Unimog Journal.  It appears to be the black only
 color
  separation of a color magazine, but contains the text.  Some pretty
  interesting articles for Moggers or Mogger wannabes.
 
  Question?  Is there a mog built that would deliver 80 to 100 hp with
 Diesel
  and could have a sustained rear pto load of 50-60 hp?
