I must stress that out of those, only the 411.120 and 1100 can truly be said are mine (1100 is shared ownership with dad), the other's are my Dads, but as he doesn't put them on his own profile, I take that liberty :P ;)

Good call on the PTO winch, one thing I always stress is that you can not beat a mechanical winch, hydraulic and electric will never pull as well, because there's no solid connection. Is the Sepson worm drive?

The 419 tends to be a very spurious mog, It uses a 406 cab, but I've seen some use the 417 2" cab lift, and also use the 417 gearbox.
They seem to be a good mog, and also came as standard with 110bhp, rather than the civilian 84.
The high speed underbelly pto's are very good for cranes. The green Unimog has one for the crane on the back. it used to run of the standard hydraulics, but was slow and struggled to lift, now it's like a completely different crane :)

Any pictures? Both with the winch and the blower? We like pictures on here :)

I'll take some pictures for you of the blade setup, If I don't post them up feel free to remind me, I have the worlds worst memory, a fact which people pick up on quite quickly :)

And this is a forum for people of a similar interest, you should feel welcome, if you're willing to talk mog's, we're willing to listen :P

Cheers, Brian  ;D
