Thanks for watching. I just think they are very cool vehicles and pretty unique so it nice to see other people who appreciate them. I'm just trying to inform people since the first time I saw one, I wanted to know as much as possible about them. I also never I thought I would own or drive one either but it is funny what happens when you want to own the real version of your favorite Matchbox and/or Corgi :)

When I worked at our town public works, we had a 1974 mercedes unimog with a snow thrower, plow, a high range bucket, it could pump fluids (water), and other attachments. The thing was so kool in first low it could creep so slow that the driver could get out, walk around it, and get back in it! Sadly, only 4 of us could get it to move, so using it was never used to its ability. I personally loved it. I could park it running anywhere, and not a person ever touched it, lol!

@flower2289 Carbs on aircraft are great because they are one barrel and use a separate primer instead of a choke for starting. The carb only has to accelerate the engine and prop, not the whole plane.. which is also why magneto timing is fixed. Bourdon tubes are great but the gauges are laggy and inaccurate and will make a mess if a line leaks (heck even manifold pressure gauges have drains to let out the excess fuel) and generators are awful because all of the current has to go through the brushes (which is why you have to inspect them every 200 hours vs 500 hours for alternator brushes) plus they need a heavy and failure prone mechanical voltage regulator, current limiter, and reverse current cutout vs an alternator with a solid state regulator, no need for current limiter since it’s self-limiting, and diode rectifier already prevents reverse current. I’ve got a 1987 Econoline motorhome and it’s a full time job keeping it running. I love my new car that doesn’t need anything except fluid and filter changes.

I think the army vehicle Unimog I drove in the Danish military in the early 1990's had a 4 gear lever. A second lever engaged high and low. On a flat terrain I once got it into 3. high reverse. That was a scary ride. No rollercoaster ever got close to doing 60 km/h in reverse on a dirt track in a vehicle with 4 giant springs as suspension.

So in lowest crawl at 1000rpm the Unimog will go at 150yards/hour. If you just let it idle, it’ll go somewhere around 20yards/hour or less… Use case was mainly large snowblowers (clearing avalanches from roads and railway tracks). These “hyper crawl” gearboxes are rare to find, as all slightly newer Unimogs would use the hydrostatic drive for such applications. Also: when the lucky owner used the phrase “like a tractor”, he could have left out the “like” as the Unimog was conceptualised as an agricultural vehicle. When these two German engineers heard about the Morgenthau plan (turning post war Germany into a strictly and only agricultural country - they later found out that this would starve about 8 million Germans to death) they thought that thousands of universally usable tractor-like vehicles would be needed and built one. Later Mercedes bought their company and military use was introduced. Thus Unimog is an acronym standing for UNIversal MOtor Gerät (Gerät=appliance, tool).

hydrostatic drive made it so much simpler to use and maintain, any trouble you just flush system and replace hydro pump or motor. i worked in croatian road maintainance, we had 20 unimogs just for "winter" but non of them were actually used as plows as we had 20 ton trucks with huge plows. Unimogs were for local roads. and this is Adriatic coast, we see snow perhaps once a year, if it is super snowy we get 3 snow days :D we used them for cutting grass and cleaning ditches by roadside

@ good question for which I don’t have the figures but some leading facts. Engines were always small 4 cylinder diesel engines with an output around 200 hp and 590 lb-ft. and of all the gears in and around the vehicle, the last ones are in the wheels. Because of its portal axles the last reduction is in the wheel assembly.

The writers for The Fast and Furious movies absolutely took inspiration from a Unimog. I've got a question though, how difficult is it to catch the gates for 3, 4, 5, and 6 properly? I've figured mis-shifting is one reason 6spd manuals tend to be what is commonly available. Edit: I watched another one of this person's videos that covered covered how the 8spd works a little more. Basically there is an interlock the Operator has to activate before moving the gear lever to the "High Range" of gears 5-8. To activate/deactivate the interlock the Operator must put the gear lever into either 3rd or 4th gear, afterwards the pneumatic interlock will open and allow the shifter to move to the upper range. They didn't say anything about downshifts though.

Its the same for upshifts and downshifts. You can only go up or down one row of gears at a time, you cant skip and go directly from 3rd or 4th to 7th or 8th and vice versa. Also there is no problem with missing shifts, for one its more like a 4 speed but twice instead of 8 a speed, and the gearbox feel and shifting precision are better than some sportscars ive driven, weirdly enough. As well as generally when driving normally, you wont be useing low range at all, 5th gear is all ready slow enough to get going in traffick, even with a decent load in the back.

Long ago, here in the UK, a seriously talented engineer built a handful of heavy-haul trucks and when I say heavy, these things could move 350t as a single unit. They were powered by GM 92 series two-stroke V8 diesels driving Fuller Roadranger RTO915 gearbox and Hardy-Spicer splitter axles. The Fuller box had 15 forward and 3 reverse gears (5 x 3 ranges) and the axles were four-speed so in effect, 60 forward and 12 reverse gears!

I was on a work outing in the desert near Lake Powell. The host was a guy who had started his own “Unimog experience” firm. He was driving his troop transport Mog and I and 10 or so of my work colleagues were in back. He was overconfident as he dug into that gearbox to show us what that baby could do. We’d already travelled about 5 miles off the road on terrain that wouldn’t have challenged a 4x2 pickup when he flipped a few levers to take us up and over a short rock edge. We heard a grind and then all slammed on our seats to the front of the bed. The engine died. We sat still as he tried to restart, only to grind the gears more when it finally did. TLDR: a five mile hike through desert heat to find a payphone somewhere near Glen Canyon Dam.

24 gears forward and 24 gears reverse. Working gear multiplies the main gearbox by 5.76:1 and crawler by 56:1. Most stock transfer-boxes reduce 2.75 +/- except the Jeep Rubicon is 4:1. Most after market creeper ratios are also around 4:1. So the working gears on a Unimog are already slower than most extra low aftermarket boxes. The crawler gears are about 15 times lower than that.

They are actually little lights to tell you what gate you are in. So the first light illuminates if you are in the 1/2 gate, the next light illuminates if you are in the 3/4 gate and so on. Basically it is to help you know what gear you are in since there are a lot of throws on that gearbox.

Thanks. I like your skidder rebuild! I've got a Unimog U1450 coming in set up as a skidder with Werner center frame mounted winch but it is not quite the same as having a proper dedicated skidder. Of course the Unimog can also go 65 mph down the road and does not need to be trailed to job sites. Obviously different pros and cons. Hopefully I'll get some youtube coverage on the U1450 skidder once I get it into action.

It is an older model, so tops out at 90 kmh. And i mean tops put, it's full throttle full revs screaming down the road. It will do it, but will make you miserable for between city trips.

It's actually a tad more than 62 mph (100 kph ) when the max RPM's are turned up a bit. It has high speed gears and turbo OM366A. As mentioned that is at full throttle but that is the way they are designed to run. I guess it depends what your standards are, but I've driven this set up cross country multiple times, mostly highway, and it doesn't bother me. However, it is not a modern pickup with plush interior and quiet ride. Way more comfortable than my old Land Rovers and Vanagons but not as comfortable as my neighbors new F250. It's all relative but Unimogs are definitely not highway cruisers.

Interesting. As a european I have to say there was quite a lot of talk for what seems to be a normal H-style manual gearbox 🤭 However I am wondering one thing still: can you also go into neutral with the main H-lever? (so theres two different neutrals?)
