May 28th, 2013. And here's one on the right way to get stuck! Notice the water pouring out of the side of the hood!http://youtu.be/rH0Ri9HLKRk

May 28th, 2013. More French Uglies! :naner:http://youtu.be/rksNHt5-Kac

May 22nd, 2013. Frikkin Choochin, King Machine from one of the pesky Unimog owners from south of the border (yours, not ours)! Having owned both units, I do miss my deuce, but the Unimog is more agile and less likely to get stuck..... HOWEVER, when a Unimog does get properly stuck, its gonna...

May 22nd, 2013.Good luck,guys! We here in Illinois are rooting for you and hope that your results will be something like our "FMV" registration created by Ma Deuce, or the Texas FMV regulations, as the fear was that our state here would catch the Wis DMV illness, as Unimogs are probably as rare...

May 17th, 2013.MB did power steering for an 80HP engine gas Unimog???? Real men drive without power steering, old guys like me use the truck to help out, by raising the front tire pressure to the legal limit and greasing everything in the front end! Unlike a M35A2s Air O Matic's the way to...

:cry: May 2nd, 2013. Apparently the Afghanistan Talibans have developed the means to damage a British built Mastiff MRAP so severely that the three man crew inside died from the effects of the IED. Apparently the British Army (and I suspect our Army) will analyze how the vehicle's defenses...

April 3rd, 2013.Now, another ugly French Army 4X4 truck, this one looks like it shared the front stamping from the French Ambulance in the video at top here! http://youtu.be/hGz8lp1SLTk You have to love French Engineering, if they can't copy a concept, who can?:roll:

March 30th, 2013. :twisted: I am not sure how the French managed it, but they ended up with a vehicle even uglier then a Unimog S404.114! This link should take you to a short video, but the front end kinda looks like a Unimog S404.114 rear ended a Ford Louisville L series grille..... Some...

March 28th, 2013.I doubt if many folks would take a Gradall where a Unimog would go, and the Unimog will go faster on the road then a Gradall! Only the HMME will do more and go faster, and at a very large markup over a used SEE!:twisted:

Here's a Good Reason to own an S404.114 Unimog, March 25th, 2013 in Springfield, Illinois before the snow stopped for the day at 17" of wet and slippery:You also have to love the cab heater and defroster, but I could wish that MB had put a defroster head on the passengers side for the...

March 27th, 2013. :-D MaDeuce: I have the temporary plate for the Unimog. Mr. McGrath was sterling as he assisted me in paying for the plate with cash (all I had in the pocket right then, as I had forgotten the checkbook) and I will be receiving one of the new FMV plates when...

March 21st, 2013.. :-D German engineering may drive you nuts, or drive you broke, but anyone who hasn't owned a Unimog doesn't realize how well engineered they are, even back to the S404.114's (The generation or two before yours). The worst thing you can do to a gasoline Unimog is feed...

:nothingfunny:

March 1st, 2013. Don't think its a catalytic converter on a early sixties S404.114. You may want to check the ground wire between the distributor body and the engine(let me check mine tomorrow, as I do remember a braided ground wire, but it may be between the block and some other part (its too...

February 25th, 2013. Thanks Kenny! I guess the Wizard is not at the Emerald City right now, and it is a horse of a different color I am working on! Be glad you're in Florida, the weather up here of late has been crummy!:???:

February 25th, 2013. Dear Spicergear: Clear out your inbox as I have a S404.114 Fuel System question I would like your input on!:driver:

February 25th, 2013. PA Farmer: You have verified it is getting gas in the carburettor jets? Are you using gasoline with Ethanol in it? If so, very probably your mechanical fuel pump either gave up the ghost or is about to. There is one thing I will tell you about the civillian distributor...

February 24th, 2013.:jumpin: Nick02: And add convert the plugs and electricals from the distibuter body up to civillian plugs, leads, distributor cap and possible a Pertronix ignition unit, as the S404.114's don't really like to go above 35 MPH for long with with the stock ignition. If you are...

February 22nd, 2013. Perhaps the OP has found a diesel already, but it does seem that none of you are familiar with the Deutz air-cooled diesels. I have a genset with a 4 cylinder FL912 that puts out about 50 HP and other then needing to maintain a clean air filter, it will outwork almost...

February 17th, 2013. 1943ht: Neat little truck, I have seen the Gladiators that preceded that rigged the same way (they had the same front end as the original "Commando" or "Wagoneer" of the 1950's with a heavier suspension), so it is a pretty rare little truck your friend has and it does...
