As much as I like Tatras I think a Maz would be first on my list, but I think parts etc would be unbarable to try and come up with.

The emergency brake is a linkage acuated drum brake on the driveline. The regualr brakes are all pnumatically actuated. The winch also has a pnumaticly acuated driveline brake drum. Most all the gearbox controls etc lockers and acuaters are electro-pnumatic. It sends 24 volts which opens a...

Thanks for another contact, how do you come up with these sites, I have done tons of searches and never seen these sites?

Wow the stuff I like is never cheap!!!

The only engine info I have is on the engine I commented on. Im not sure about specs on the other one, I will have to look deeper to find some info Im still learning about the truck myself in a lot of ways. I do like your links that would be a great parts truck, but the shipping would be very...

Im not sure of the max travel of the axle but as you see in the first picture when one axle is off the ground which happens alot offroad the axle next to it is taking the whole load of the one end of the truck so is compressed quite a bit, it actually works very well with a extremely solid...

Here are some pics playing today! I also have the new cargo cover on now.

I will have to look in my books for the engine differences, I know the later one went from a 17liter to a 19liter I believe and a little more horsepower, I also know in 1975 and on they made changes to reduce smoke. my manual says the t930-3e and the t930-17e are equal as to construction with...

very nice, do you have a source for those tires?

I may have to think about getting one of those. Is the crane all self contained as far as hydraulics? is the pump electric?

I would just get a couple 4x4 quads for back-up. I have a polaris mv-7 quad the military version and it can carry 3 adults easily if need be, and it takes up little space and it already has lifting lugs on it (actually made for helicopter drop offs). You arnt going to get too extreme offroad...

tatra-kolos As far as putting a trailer on the back I still think you would be time and money ahead to put a trailer on the back, one thing I noticed is the suspention on the tatra is AWSOME even unloaded its a very smooth ride. If you get a aluminum framed unit with fiberglass sides they are...

I love the truck like you do, most people like it but just dont understand why I would buy a truck like that, now I tell people if you have to ask why, then you wouldnt understand. Anyway the rhino lining is very nice and it helps alot with the sound with the engine, you can also put on the...

Wow thats going to be a mint conditions tatra for sure, the gearbox you are talking about adding may work in the driveline between the engine and tranny, but it is not very long and there is hardly any clearance between the driveline and the bottom of the cab, and also hardly any clearance...

very nice I really like the crew cab!!

Good to hear from another tatra owner, the best place for manuals is the guy in alaska he can get you everything you need except for the workshop manual, if your interested in that pm me and I can let you know what I have. I dont know too much about shipping vehicles over but I dont think its a...

Thanks for the help I have been searching the oil out on a yahoo search engine and it didnt come up with anything usable, I think I will have to start using Google. Thanks again I think 15w40 is probably fine but Im going to go with the recommended sae40 like you said its a specialty engine and...

Thanks for the heads up, I know that they have both been running 15w40 but that doesnt mean that there may be a better oil out there, it is a four stroke so Im not sure if the delo 100 is necessary, but if it will do a better job I would consider using it what do you think. I know the previous...

Thanks the reason I want to make sure on the power steering is one of my tatra's has automatic transmission fluid and the other one has what looks like regular oil of some sort, (In the power steering fluid tank) same color as motor oil so I am assuming its premium tractor fluid then. I didnt...

look foward to seeing the photos!!
