Hello, which seal are you referring to?

Spend less money!

Thanks, progress has been slow over the holidays.

Thank you very much!

No idea how fast we were actually going, need to grab the old Garmin and go for another drive when I get the rear brakes rebuilt

Yeah there are but they are appropriately expensive, one community member said their way was to calculate the distance needed using their own body weight to achieve appropriate torque on the bolts

@@RestoMog i have to say, that sounds a bit dodgy.

@@Hipporider I don't completely disagree but the math makes sense.

Nice!

The stock engine had already been removed and replaced with a Mercedes om617 3.0l 5 cylinder turbo diesel, I have upgraded the turbo to a Holset HE221w. The om617 swap group on facebook has found a Bosch alternator that bolts up and has the correct spacing to use the stock v belt pulley.

Thank you, I should have more parts and more videos coming within the next month.

@@RestoMog good stuff

Working on it slowly at the moment, I recently changed jobs and am getting caught up again.

Glad I could be of assistance, I've noticed a lack of "how to" videos for mogs and hope to fill in some of the more common things.

its not a terrible job to just pull the knuckle off the housing complete. Bring it by and I can help you get it done 🤣

Nice video, taking time and effort bringing this knowledge to us!

That's the way I bought it and really the turbo diesel makes it more more useable day to day.

@@RestoMog then you should (must) remove the ochsenkopf logo from your account since your vehicle has nothing to do with original Unimog.

@@Superleicht_R107 so using the original chassis, transmission, axles, suspension, cab, and bed frame don't make it a mog, just the engine?

@@RestoMog It's just so that ALL Unimog (no plural!!) have a Diesel engine. Except the 404. That is one of the special thing about the 404. Therefore it is wrong to make it a Diesel. BUT! There were about 40 pieces in the later years which were delivered to the portuguise army with an OM (oil motor) i. e. Diesel. But more than 64.200 pieces were build with the original M180/II and M130 engine. The purpose of owning an oldtimer is to preserve it (in original condition). So talk to your 404 and if it answers in portuguise, it will be ok. Otherwise the engine is a sacriledge. ;-)

I bought it with the Diesel already, the diesel is one of the best upgrades you can do to a 404, I'd be interested to hear why you don't like them diesel.

@@RestoMog Just because it is not "original". I have one of the first build 404.111 of 1955 and it is important to keep it as it was build. With such a massive change I wouldn't get the H-numberplate for historic vehicles.

@@Superleicht_R107 I'm in North America so there is no H license plate for me, they only thing left of the truck other than the frame and axles was the cab so this is long past being "original" I intend to use this as a regular truck and the diesel is a massive improvement.

@@RestoMog OMG, you Americans have not culture at all 😂🤣😂🤣

@@Superleicht_R107 you sound boring. Bloke got it with a diesel in, everyone knows the original engines in these are no good for anything other than hauling

Thanks Victor, I really am curious what that pipe was for.

Thank you, progress is slow but steady I think.

Thank you very much, you're site and employees have been very helpful in finding some of the parts for this old engine.

Thanks Victor, hopefully in the next episode you get to see it dressed up again.
