So I posted your question on http://www.benzworld.org/forums/unimog/ to see what kind of answers you would get since it is a Unimog specific forum with very active members.
Here is a link to the thread: http://www.benzworld.org/forums/unimog/1853489-replacing-404-air-booster-one-off.html
So I am confused... Is this a personal vehicle or a department vehicle? I am trying to figure out if approaching LEO departments is a potential way to purchase a vehicle.
I don't know if you can get one in PA but VA offers a trip permit. You should look into it. It allows you to insure a vehicle and then drive it home even if it is out of state and it makes everything legal. I would also advise that you take a truck instead of a car (if you have one) incase...
Do you have any pics of it still on the MOG? I've never seen a snow plow on a 404. And now sitting here thinking about it I would want to have power steering for anything more than doing a driveway.
I'm heading from Blacksburg, VA to Fort Gordon, GA on 11-26-13 in the M1028 to pick up a M1102 and then I'll be heading back to Blacksburg the same day. If you need anything picked up or delivered along the way let me know.

Depending on your use of the tires and rims you could lighten the weight and run these to allow you to air all the way down and not have to worry about destroying the inside of the tire.

It is interesting reading this information... and it is amazing the different schools of thought/misinformation of why the HMMWV isn't allowed to be sold to the public. Having read some of the information on the topic recently I decided to ask the people at the DRMO.
I just back from Fort...
I agree with Barrman. Why take the chance and only end up having to spend more money replacing something? It only takes maybe 5 mins total time to drop the rear drive shaft and secure it under the vehicle. Don't be lazy and do it right the first time.
Great well thank you Dog head, Warthog and Eagle. It is appreciated and thank you DH for telling me how in the future I can find the pics so I don't have to ask a "newb" question.
Now...do you have any suggestions as to why the glow plugs keep failing on the M1008? Something I could...
When someone identifies it can a mod change the name to what it is? So that it will be searchable once identified. I looked thru numerous different glow plug/glow plug Resistor/glow card threads and didn't find any pics identifying it. Plus it doesn't help when you don't know the name of what...
I looked this Mog over when I was in New Castle picking up my CUCV. It looked barely used and I was even more impressed that it appeared to have all the tools with it. I proceeded to bid on it but it looks like you wanted it more than I did. Glad to see someone on here got it. What are your...
I am currently bidding on a lot in OK and was wondering if someone would be willing to pick up the item and ship it to me in VA? Willing to pay you for your time and shipping cost.
Thank you in advance.
