    I have been enjoying your Unimog videos including how you forgot to switch on your 4x4. - The question I have for you is does your Unimog have the Working group transmission (Donkey key) and if so, do you think it is mandatory to have? - How often is that Donkey key used on sand in Australia?

    The gear box oil you used is excellent for the duty and load of your gearbox but if the gears grind post oil change you need to add a friction modifier to help the synchronizers dotheir job. The factory oil in theGB was SAE 30. Castrol LSD diff oil would also work fine.

    Be careful of galvanic corrosion when using steel and aluminium together. Make sure you separate them with a barrier.

    Important tip when doing diffs and portals. Always undo filler point before removing drain plug. That way you dont get stuck with an empty unit if the fill plug wont move.

  • @shano77
    @shano77 2 місяці тому

    Worth noting that you have to bleed the brakes when replacing any portal seals so it's a good idea to prepare for both jobs :)

    The front caliper run off of two brake circuits. One is rear and front and an emergency brake circuit just for the front .

      It’s a good idea to have spare gaskets and those flaps for the compressor as a spare. I still think an electric compressor plumbed in as a back up is a good idea.

    Now you know for the next time you're troubleshooting things: Always start with the supply/source, and work your way downstream from there. No point changing valves out if you haven't verified that the compressor is working properly first, and the same thing goes for fuel systems, electrical systems, etc.

    Memories of the Unimogs in Germany in the late 1960s. The farmers there loved them because they were able to take a plough for tilling the fields. One vehicle to substitute for a car + a truck + a tractor. I don't know if the newer models were still able to take the plough attachment.

    I have been Off-roading for a number of years. I would argue that front lockers help more than rear lockers in 90% of situations.

    From memory you can bash the back brakes off with a hammer in emergencies. You just bash the arm with a hammer and it releases provided you dont mind having no brakes at all. If you are planning on traveling with other MOGs id be carrying a 20m air hose and some fittings so you can piggyback truck together if needed.
