General Banter! / Unimog on the farm
« on: November 14, 2019, 07:12:56 pm »
Just wondering how the unimog on the farm thing went, did it seem a worthwhile event generating plenty of intrest or was it more of a case of preaching to the converted. What were the turnouts like, as expected or more or less, at least the weather held out from what i can gather wich is allus a bonus

General Banter! / YouTube Unimog vids
« on: August 31, 2019, 11:04:24 pm »
Found a few easy watching vids on youtube by a lad called Ludwig weinfurtner, basically him fixing parts on his 411 and doing jobs with it, a kind of German version of Brian :D it’s all in German but you can kind of get the jist of what he’s on about along with seeing what he’s doing. Just thought it may be of interest to anyone with a 411 that hasn’t come across it already.

General Banter! / Wipers
« on: March 31, 2019, 05:09:54 pm »
Bought some replacement wiper blades from Germany last year for my 406 but wiper arms on my mog have the straight bayonet type fitting rather than the more common hook type
Been down to euro car parts but they could not help with either new arms of either type nor the blades. Rather than buying genuine mog parts off the internet does anyone know if the arms off another vehicle will fit sutch as a vw camper or a mini?

General Banter! / Wiper motor

Trying to get my windscreen washer working on my 406. Bought a new pump as all pipes etc had no blockage and presumed this was the issue. Pump will only draw water direct from source not via pipe from water bottle to pump. Is this pump correct for the job or am I missing something. Does it look like what other guys have ?

Mog Spotting / Not fit for purpose ?
« on: July 27, 2017, 11:16:42 pm »
Just got back from Baveria, plenty of Unimogs buzzing about but the council dont seem to be using them as much as previous. I wonder if the new mogs are just too big and expensive for general maintenance and all round universal jobs like they were origonaly intended ?  They seem to be using these nifty bits of kit as an alternative.

Unimog build threads / Another job finished
« on: December 04, 2016, 06:18:25 pm »
Finally got my wheels looking more presentable, what i thorght was rust bubbling up turnd out to be layers of uneven paint from previous revamps, was still a right swine sanding it all off to bare metal though.
Next in line are the jiggerd old seats witch ive racked out for re upholstering and got cracking stripping the frames back from old paint and rust, bet this is going to be a time consuming job also, but will look a dam sight better when sorted.
