Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Yes it is, depence on definition of "NORMAL"looks like situation normal to me - nice driving!
Not all....
Russian guys are crazy, believe me...!!! I have seen it.
Hey yall Смотрите это!!How do you say "Hey yall watch this!!" in Russian? Answer...Смотрите это!!
...
The location is prohibited by OSHAMMM if OSHA could just see those videos , they're not wearing hard hats or ear protection, like any of that would matter.
Many parts are not explored by humans.... old USSR is 3rd world for the most part with pockets of "modern civilization".
It is not as bad as it looks like. They just doing the job. Truck is not overloaded as bad as you think. Just by looking I'd guess 7-8 ton. It's about capacity of truck. The conditions are extreme.After seeing the second video I think these guys are probably doing whatever they have to to make a living. That truck is seriously overloaded and unstable. That guy was insane to get on the front of that truck and think his weight would make any real difference. Let's just say I'm glad my job description doesn't include that task!
Yep, but they are FAR away from 1,000,000 miles CATs or Cummins. Most of them 100,000 Km (50,000miles) life spend. Then you need to rebuild.Zil-133 is the longnose diesel version, the truck in the second vid is a beat up Zil-131, with a gas v8. The Urals looked like either 375D or 4320. Generally speaking the Zil-131 is ill suited for a logging truck. The Ural-375D is powered by a bigger gasoline V8 engine (Zil-375Ya). These guys are from Karachay, the mountainous region in the south. As the regional stereotype goes, they allegedly have a well deserved reputation for being reckless.
The Russian logging operators in the north prefer diesel powered Urals (4320 and 375 converted to 14 liter V8 diesel YaMZ-23 and KrAZ with YaMZ-238 Turbo.
Stick with duce. If you get one swap to Cat/Cammins with Spicer/Allison and change all bering to TIMKENT or equivalent. Also swap driveshafts with yocks as possible.wow, where can I get me some of those urals to add to my (future) collection? Im impressed
Or... we could just show what our bridge layers can do, which seems like a more reasonable option!
juha_teuvonnen. He canThat speaks volumes about the qualities of Stolichnaya Vodka. My God! Trucks that are both Soldier AND Sailor proof! How do I import one? And who can translate the manuals? !!!!
That you don't see is amount of maintenance and repairs required to upkeep. maybe with good oils and grease it will prolong it's life.Because I lived in Russia for 25 years
But you name is finnish...!?Because I lived in Russia for 25 years
If you want to haul like Ural, I have new Ural tyres, 14.00-20.I found another one... I like these russian trucks
