Allrad-LKW-Gemeinschaft

I absolutely adore the shape of Mercedes SK cabins. For me, these are the best looking cabins from the 90s era. Nothing else in the 90s was equally elegant, at least in my opinion. Waren es nicht die Designer des Actros, die insbesondere den Knick in der Front als den größten Fehler der LKW-Design-...

Thank you for the link.
If only I could buy the cabin on it own and swap it on a different chassis. Sadly I have never seen these cabins on sale on their own.

Hi,

such mal nach dem gelben Unimog (Google gelber Unimog) von Tichy (Schreibweise?). Der hat im Internet auf seiner Seite ein wenig dazu geschrieben und ist auch hier im Forum unterwegs.

Beste Grüße
Michael

Tach zusammen, ich habe inzwischen meinen alten Koffer auf den LKW montiert und war mit dem Laster etwas unterwegs. Deswegen wollte ich noch einen kleinen Nachtrag über reale Gewicht/e und Verbrauch vom LKW durchgeben.. Also, leer wog das Fahrgestell ca. 6100 kg - war dann also doch was mehr als im...

Hallo,

es gibt keine Probleme für einen großen 4-Achser in den Bergen auf freier Strecke.

Lediglich die Bepflanzung in einigen Ortsdurchfahrten wird leiden.

How about these trucks driving on the roads shown on your pictures posted above?

.... Die Schweizer haben eine wsk400 verbaut , dafür ist die vg Gruppen Schaltung deaktiviert ( aber soweit ich weiß vorhanden) Ich finde das sind großartige Fahrzeuge und bekannt für ihre Robustheit. Out of interest, can WSK400 be mounted to any truck? Or is WSK400 suitable only for a limited numb...

Hallo, zum Thema Fahrerhaus habe ich jetzt noch folgende Werte gefunden: S - Fahrerhaus (Standard: 1540 x 2070 x 1912). M - Fahrerhaus (Mittellang: 1910 x 2070 x 2025). L - Fahrerhaus (Lang: 2140 x 2070 x 2025). GR - Fahrerhaus (Großraum: 2140 x 2234 x 2033). GRHD - Fahrerhaus (Großraum+Hochdach: 2...

Hallo, ein paar Fotos zur Einstimmung: https://up.picr.de/34746518ai.jpg https://up.picr.de/34746538ho.jpg https://up.picr.de/34746543hw.jpg https://up.picr.de/34746545ff.jpg https://up.picr.de/34746550vg.jpg https://up.picr.de/34746552me.jpg https://up.picr.de/34746595ak.jpg https://up.picr.de/347...

Anyone with Euro 4 wish to share their experience?

Being on a long extension of the twisting frame rails made the wooden frame twist as well, as if it was actually part of the chassis. When one of the edges went up the other two connected directly to it went down, twisting the whole construct and thus driving sidewards the tube of the torsionometer...

@Uwe, Das ist sehr hilfreich für mich. Vielen Dank! Gibt es ein Mercedes Lkw-Modell mit längeren Federblättern? Hallo, der Zetros wird z.B. als 6x6 mit 16.00R20 angeboten - das Doppelachsaggregat unterscheidet sich von dem des alten SK im Wesentlichen nur durch Parabelfedern anstelle der Trapeze. A...

.... I am probably the craziest dude here, so why would you possible like to fit 16:00R20 on your truck? They look great, yes, but when you have to lift and manoeuver one of them in uneven terrain if you have a flat... oh, oh... @Pairoa I would like to have them for a number of reasons. Also, they ...

@tooFATtoDRIVE: Well, the Merkabah has a console, big and heavy, that is part of and holds the bogie to the main frame rails. It has a pointed bolting pattern on the vertical part of the rail -or soul of the rail, and the frame on that part has long inner rails as reinforcement. Pretty tough. The d...

Now I have few questions for you. Imagine a situation where you had straight frame rails all way to the very end of the truck and you wanted to extend the wheel base, i.e. move the bogie to the end of the frame. How is the bogie mounting mechanism affixed to the frame? Bolts/nuts or something more p...

By the way, Euro3 is not modern ......

I guess you are right. None of my vehicles is younger than 1998

All, I wanted to start this discussion to listen to experience of those who travel in relatively modern trucks with Euro 3/4 engines. The idea of this discussion started after coming across a Swiss couple and their 4 extremes expedition travel project - https://www.4-xtremes.ch/ First of all, the en...

Great to hear from you again. We were missing your updates. Keep it on with your project!!!

What's the latest with this great project?

Pairoa,
It has been long time since you posted on your project. What are the latest updates?

Hello all, I might have found a potential 6x6 truck for my overland camper project I wish to start next year. The issue is that the truck is based in Germany and I am based in the UK, but the camper itself would be register in Poland. Is there any team member on here located somewhere close to this ...

Hello, what's the latest with your MB truck? It is a very exciting project and I am sure many on here are keen to hear the latest.

What a great discussion and equally great source of info on modern (relatively speaking) MAN trucks!

I absolutely adore this project!!! (1) I have somewhat unusual question: I always wondered what would be the max size/measurements of an expedition truck that would allow you to travel to remote places in South America? In particular the length and height. (2) I remember you were once asked whether ...
