    Picked up a unimog

    I would also check the wheel cylinders. When I got my first 404 my brakes didn't work. I had to replace all 4 (they can be rebuilt) and I went ahead and replaced the rubber hoses just to be safe incase they had collapsed due to age. This way I only had to bleed the brakes once. Nice score.

    6 Speed to 8 Speed Converstion!!!

    If memory serves me correctly you can't have a PTO if you go with this modification since the shifter is on the same side of the box as PTO output.

    I towed both of my unimogs on my trailer (at separate times) with it multiple times. It was like it wasn't even there. It rode alot better loaded.

    pumping lake water

    You should install a check valve (one way valve) to prevent you from having to prime the pump each time. Also here is a website that you might want to check out: www.WeedersDigest.com It has lots of info on using lake water for watering duties.

    Toggle Switch with Green Light

    I have one on my truck as well (which I purchased from FT. Gordon also) and I am almost positive (from reading somewhere) that the switch was to control the arctic heater/swingfire pump. Here is the link: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/cucv/61625-m1008-arctic-winterization-kit-2.html The...

    Pinzgauer 718

    I am looking at purchasing a 718 pinzgauer and I have a couple of questions: Does anyone on here have one? Pro's/Con's? Pro's/Con's compared to the 712? What is the fair market price for them? Thanks in advance.

    Adventures in WMO

    No the 6.2 is not a multi fuel. If I were you I would check in the Alternative Fuels section and use the search function. Yes several people have run WMO in the 6.2

    Just a few reasons it's good to own a CUCV...

    Its a state law in VA to stop for someone in a cross walk. Well that law seems to apply to everyone but me in the '08. I haven't had one single pedestrian ever walk out in front of me when I'm driving it. However in every other vehicle I own everyone just walks right out like I'm not even...

    The clicking, the clicking!

    Yet another reason why I love this forum. I was going to get on here and post a question about this same problem that I am having with the same symptoms. When the truck starts up it will occasionally make the chatter with the volt meter bouncing all over. Going to replace the GP relay...off...

    WVO or Biodiesel?

    I agree with Bjorn. It all depends on the vehicle that you have and since you have a Deuce A2 with a multifuel and some farm tractors I would just filter the WVO and mix with regular diesel. This way you will save some money by not having to purchase the biodiesel processing equipment. You'll...
