I like that, massive amount of work gone into that build.

Maybe not front linkage, but one of those lighter, pickup truck blades they have in the US. Clearing would definitely be fun. Especially if it was enclosed and had a heater.

Norsk,

I'm about 700 k's north of you, in Åfjord, referred to by the tourist board as "Norway in Miniature".

My little 411 was modified heavily by a guy who had the creativity of the guy who built the one above but without the attention to detail. When the manuals arrive I will try and figure out what are modifications, why they were made and what to keep.

You know the price of 4wd tractors in Norway so, for me at least, this is a cheap alternative with a lot of potential for this area.

How's the tree business in Bergen? I was involved in it 40+ years ago back home and still do a bit for friends.

Lykke til sørover.

Norsk,

I have the parts list and a PDF of “Workshops Manual Unimog 421-411 Volume 1” and have ordered the rest. The trick is that the truck has been heavily modified. For example:
   90’s Nissan non-turbo diesel engine (from a Navara?)
   Hydraulic steering
   Modified air system
   Air actuated lockers
   Hydraulic pump & controls
   Modified rear PTO
   Add on 3 point hitch
   2 inch lift on front axle

That makes it a bit awkward figuring out what’s what.

I’m going to post some pics under “411 in Norway” to make sure there is no confusion with the one above.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,

Tom
