Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2017 - September VOTE HERE!

[maddawg308]

Wow, the Gama Goats have it this month!

 

[Migginsbros]

Back to another rare thing. The Steinbock FUG 2,5 Y4.
Have a view to the two seperate cabins and a look
thru the tunnel from driver to passenger seat.

To reduce hight for shipping or street use you can fold the
forklift tower right in between the two cabins.

BTW vote for Migginsbros 6 Cylinder Aircooled Diesel Forklift.

I have to thank another SS member who helped with the restoration, Bill,Idaho. He provided me with information and installation instructions for the AN/VRC-46 radio set in the carrier. There are very few pictures of commo gear in Gama Goats so it was very helpful to have the information to install it correctly. I made a short video of "Entering a Net" so all of you Cold War Vets could once again enjoy the sights and sounds of the RT-524, a sound none of us I doubt can forget.

Excited to 3 more voters which pushed us on third,
here we go.........night shift pics.



We want your vote!

 

[combat32]

Ahhh, the old 524, brings back memories.

 

[Migginsbros]

Of course you can drive the FUG with 4 passengers. After a short instruction the FUG is easy to drive also by the trainees


Campaign, campaign, campaign...........

 

[Migginsbros]

Good morning to all military vehicle enthusiasts.
Today is a good day to do some work with the Feldumschlaggerät FUG 2.5 Y-4
We expect up to 10h sunshine without any clouds and temp rise up to 68°F
Needless to say we will take some pics.

 

[Migginsbros]

I appreciate those who voted for my truck.

 

[Migginsbros]

Here we go!

 

[Migginsbros]

After doing some work to clear the backyard we have an idea.
But....
let´s save the fun for later.


There are about 5 hours to vote one of your favourites for SSeptember
in this picture loaded campaign.

Gama Says...

 

[Migginsbros]

Some living pictures...https://youtu.be/GRmhdK59dKs

 

[Migginsbros]

As we get the FUG we change all fluids incl. the planetary wheel drive. First thing we reinstall was the scrapped independent diesel heater because due to the air cooled KHD Engine you need the added heat to get the windows clear in winter. After we go thru the TM´s we try to get over the years all vehicle mounted staff and all aditional vehicle specific parts.


BTW...less than 4 hours to vote for Migginsbros Forklift Steinbock Feldumschlaggerät FUG 2.5 Y4

 

[Migginsbros]

Idea: Get all the onboard equipment out of the FUG, get on the roof and take a picture from above.
jerrycans,camonets,sticks & umbrellas for nets,jumper cable,longforks,extensions for longforks,
tirechains,tow bar, cranehook and the 3 piece bumper for street use.

 

[Migginsbros]

There´s more. For service and repair we collect all the special tools needed and add the usefull dozerblade.

 

[combat32]

I got to admit thats the coolest forklift i have ever seen.

Was it Bundeswehr?

 

[Holgi]

I got to admit thats the coolest forklift i have ever seen.

Yeah.

Was it Bundeswehr?

Of course, that is logical.
