Nicely done mate 👍 don’t see that many 1700 about. Not sure if that was the one at Newark vintage day?🤔

Nice video! I am looking for a older type agricultural unimog, but I don't know for what model to look for.

Nice one mate. Unfortunately I don’t know anything about them but maybe another subscriber might … Anyone?

@@ProHorizon That all depends on what you're looking for. Most of the Unimogs can be an agricultural version. Starting from the really early 2010/401 Unimogs in the 40's. They didn't even have hydraulics, they had air powered three point linkages etc. But those are rare. The only ones that usually don't have agricultural versions are the long wheelbase modells, like 404, 416, 1300l, mend as offroad trucks. Generally, if you want to do heavy farming you're probably best off with a MB trac. The Unimog is just limited by its relatively small tires. So everything else is completely up to your needs, for size, features and money. Starting with the 411: Official max loaded vehicle weight 3500kg. 35hp 4cyl Diesel, 6 Speed gearbox, Options: PTO front back, 3 Points front Back, frontend loader, 2 hydraulic remotes. Sometimes even crawler gears and a double clutch that gives you a motor pto. Normally the PTO is linked to the gearbox and your driving clutch, so if you change gears your power transmission is also paused. Comes as open top or steel cab The successor to the 411 is the 421. A little bit bigger, 40/45/52/60 hp depending on model year and options. Still has convertible and enclosed versions, but roomier and the cab is tiltable for service. The gearbox is also updated, still a 6 speed, but newly designed. Options like split gears, crawler and super crawler gears are far more common. Same pto, 3 point link options, etc. The double clutch is also a bit more common, and especially a lot better and stronger designed, but still most 421's just have a single clutch. However, they've got another feature: a two Speed PTO that can be shifted from 540rpm to 1000. The 406shares the same axles and gearboxes/cabs (okay, they convertible cab is a bit roomier on the 406) as the 421, but everything is beefier. It's just a far bigger machine, built for the strong 6 cyl engine producing up to 120 hp i think. Then there is also the 403, which is just a 406 but with a truck sized 4 cylinder engine (the 4/11/421s just have 4 cyl engines derived from cars). One thing to mention with these Unimogs: The 3 point linkages don't come with draft or height control mechanisms. In the beginning only MB tracs had that. Furthermore, the rear PTO of the Unimogs is left of the trailer hitch. So you often need the additional relocating gearbox to get it centred below the hitch, for i.e. muck spreaders. And the front PTO turns opposite to most tractors. From the 70's onwards they produced the Unimogs with the square cabs, like this 1700. Starting with i think a U1000, naturally aspirated 6 cyl around 100hp. However, most people say you should skip that and go directly to the next bigger one, the 1200. Goes up to the 1700 and even bigger i think. They come with far more features. Bigger engines, beefier frames, bigger tires. Better gearboxes, now 8 main speeds. More hydraulic remotes, double clutches, Ptos centered below the hitch, etc. And also worth mentioning: They could be equipped with electronic height control for the rear 3 Point linkage. The cab is also far more spacious, quieter and can have things like air con. Totally different, far more modern beasts. However, they are of course also far more complicated than everything up to the 406. Their complexity is not comparable to tractors of the time, because things like their brakes, etc all had to be up to truck standards because they drive truck speeds. Whilst the 411 has just single circuit hydraulic drum brakes, the 421 just added air assist to it. And the 406 went a step further later on and came with disc brakes.

Annnd this is probably why there's confusion on whether to call it a truck 🚛 or a tractor 🚜 😂

@@ProHorizon I'm not sure about Europe but in the US the profession is called "trucker" or "truck driver" .... But the DOT (department of transportation) refers to them as "tractor trailers" and the "truck" is somehow referred to as a "tractor" 🤨🤔😮‍💨 It's weird and varies state to state

@ethanmeatzie6179 Жыл бұрын

To be fair, that terminology seems to be regional. Where I'm at, people seem more imclined to call them semi trucks/trailers, but I've also heard people call them half trucks/trailers.

The UNIMOG is _universal_ , that is why it is called UNIMOG --> Universal-Motor-Geraet.

Is it ok for the gearbox?

No problem

@thesayxx 10 ай бұрын

The unimog has a crazy gearbox, with some insane gear ratios. If you stick in it low crawl gear and set it to 1700rpm it will crawl up a near vertical slope with the wheels barely moving.
