    Some more 404 advice - a year later

    Hi everyone, last year April I posted a video and asked for and got some great advice (some of which I'm still working on). I've since then acquired all the service manuals including the Bundeswehr Microfiche service guides and scanned them all. I fixed my stuck fuel pedal and throttle issue...

I'm thinking to myself this looks important, it's sitting just inside the frame in front of the air tank. Is this the cold...

    My 9yo son insisted that we take out Mogster to run an errand to our assistant scout masters house.

    Brake Check on 404s - Need Guidance

    As Swiss has suggested, brakes are my #1 priority. Got on my creeper and spent some quality time under the Mog. Upon close inspection of my brake system I found these two little presents.

    Help using this forum

    Please don't list this as spam or me as a troll for asking these questions. I am no stranger to forums yet I am puzzled by how things are done here. 1) I introduced myself in the Unimog forum, then went back and added pictures to my post and discovered my initial post disappeared. I sent a PM...

    Need help figuring out these 10 issues I have with my 404s

    This Topic is TL - DR material. Please read if you're able to assist with a new Mog owner who is probably in over his head. ;-) This is all still new to me so please go easy on me. As I am not a formally trained mechanic, I need to dive in deep here. I just ordered a bunch of spare parts from...

    New to group - just bought a 404s

    Hi, I've been reading this forum and several others for a while now. I've learned so much from reading all of your posts. I've got a notebook full of notes. My mother was from Hanover Germany and since I was 5 having seen my first Unimog back in 1976, I've wanted one. Nowadays I live in...
