Yes, I contacted Mercedes in Germany. I got transferred 4 - 5 times before I got to someone that had any technical information. I initially indicated that I was an investor. That got me by the automatic no help. That process is my secret weapon when you need help with any public traded...

The originals are BA7s 24V 1.5 watt. That spec is what I couldn't find. I talked with Expedition Imports and Mercedes and they told me that they weren't made anymore. I found some online and ordered them, but the company cancelled the order when they couldn't obtain them. You can definitely...

You may be correct, but it is a moot point when there are no incandescent versions of BA7s bulbs available.

I just ordered 8 new LED bulbs on Amazon, Ruiandsion BA7s LED bulbs, white, 3898, 10 VDC - 26 VDC. The total cost for 8 bulbs was $21.58. I believe these will work but I won't know until I receive them. If they work, I'm going to replace all of my bulbs with these LED bulbs.

Unfortunately, those won't work. The correct bulb is shown in the photo. Thanks anyway, I appreciate the help.

I need some 001-544-53-94-MBZ light bulbs for my FLU419. These are the bulbs that go in the display showing PTO, air, etc. status. Expedition Imports, Pelican, et al don't carry them anymore. These are 24VDC 5 watt. Does anyone know where these might be purchased? European source?

Make certain that the cable isn't bent at a large angle at that spot. And as Jeepadict mentioned, make sure the gears are greased. Also, make sure the cable itself is lubricated.

This is the way the M35A3 heater is located. A substantial improvement IMHO.

The hydraulic tools on the FLU419 are made by Stanley Infrastructure. You undoubtedly have a Stanley Infrastructure dealer near you in Colorado. If not, I have purchased repair parts from the following dealer in Georgia. Southeast Railroad Tool Service 2504 Tails Creek Rd Ellijay Georgia...

Not a problem - thanks for looking. I may have figured it out now. Those mice love those wires!

Not sure if it would help. I didn't do it. Removing he light switch only helps if ROPS was installed and the light switch was relocated to the right. The TM is actually very good at describing the process of switching the MC, but doesn't mention the part about the light switch. Be careful of...

If your A2 had ROPS installed, the light switch was moved over. If you remove the light switch, you have better access to the bolts for the MC. Just follow the TM to remove the master cylinder, I did it and it wasn't that difficult and I also have large hands. I replaced my MC with an NOS...

I would definitely go ahead and replace it or rebuild it. The brakes are the most import part of a deuce.

Does anyone have a photo of the back of the ignition switch with the wires attached? The mice, or a rat, chewed off all of the wires from the switch and took the wires away to build a nest. Unfortunately, the nubbins of the wires left on the switch don't match the schematic entirely. It is...

Transfer switches aren't that expensive, especially if you consider the potential downside for not having one. I found a brand new 400 Amp Square D manual transfer switch on Ebay for use with my MEP003A for a couple hundred dollars. There is only one way to do things and that is the correct...

From memory I believe the 900 X 20 tires are 40 inches tall.

I have an M149A2 water buffalo trailer with a 400-gallon stainless steel tank like the one you have pictured. I pull it around on my 40 acres with my John Deere 5520 tractor. It works great. However, you have to be careful, especially if you are on uneven or hilly ground. The water will...

Why not have the electric starter rebuilt?

Did anyone see the FLU419 that just sold on Bring a Trailer? It was located in North Carolina. Went for $32,000.00 and no hydraulic tools. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1987-freightliner-unimog-flu419-15/?utm_source=dm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2024-06-11

The U.S. Marines got most of them, but the British and some other NATO countries got a few.
