Your name is vassal too. Just sayin

No . My name is Jason4x4 . Can any one tell me how to add a neutral to the PF MOG .

"Vassal" is a forum title given at 0-99 posts. The nickname is at the left side of the grey line above each post.

Yes I know I was just joking around

Did some rebuilding on the 6x6 forestry, went to 4x4. The center crane can be removed. It has some LED marker lights, IR driving(2 x L motors). The outriggers are removable and stored in the compartment on the passenger side. One M motor drives six functions.

1 front PTO

2 rear PTO

3 center PTO (drives 5 and 6)

4 compressor

5 boom

6 jib

Next for it will be a fifth wheel towing device.

Wow that is really amazing. In the future (once I buy enough parts) I would like to add an air ride suspension with pneumatics and maybe add an extra rear axle. Any other suggestions?

Here is a LDD file for my portal axle. The differential is backwards and I could not find a cv joint or the ball joint . http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=531294

Is the unimog a License product by lego ???

Yes.

I´m going to use a L-motor instead of the original M-motor for PTO and PPTO.

Did anyone here try it? Does it run with more Power?

I have not, with a torque limiter in the mix, it gives out before the M motor does. For my forestry Mog I swap out the torque gear with a normal one to use the center crane. It's just at the point where it starts to trip the torque gear.

ok,... thanks for this information

by the way... have you noticed http://ladekran.co.at !?

it´s a foldable Palfinger crane for the Unimog with pneumatic supports and so on...

Thanks for this link!!! Looks very cool...

Hi all!

I'm new to this forum and also to building Technic since my dark ages. I've only got the Excavator 42006, Unimog 8110 and Power Functions pack, and decided to try building something for the Unimog.

I haven't seen anyone done a tail lift for the Unimog so here it goes:

(Sorry for bad photo quality but it appears I have strict size limits as a new member.)

It took quite a bit trying to get the geometry right, and having such a limited set of parts (8110 arm and 42006 excavator), I had to do this with a combination of pneumatics and linear actuators (would have preferred just pneumatics).

The bed of the Unimog is very high for a tail lift, so the lift arm needs to be long. Luckily a 15M beam was just enough for it. Also the bed needed to be extended by about 8 studs, which doesn't look very pretty but is ok I think. (Bee coloring is of course due to limitations with the parts available :-)

The tail lift is a separate module but cannot be attached as a normal rear attachments. To minimize the extra length needed for the bed, I removed the rear bumber and the attachment point and moved PTO a couple of studs towards the front. The tail lift module is secured by wrapping a 9x5 frame around the four beam ends from the vehicle. I also added some reinforcements for the beams to keep them from bending too much.

I tried also Lego Digital Designer and modeled the tail lift and extended bed with it, primarily just for myself so that I remember how to build it later on :-) Here are the lxf files (I used pneumatics and LA parts from this forum, thanks!):

Tail Lift.lxfExtended Bed for Tail Lift.lxf

Any comments are welcome, and if you find improvement ideas or a nice way to add the rear bumber, let us hear... Oh and if you wonder about the 6M half beam hanging from the bed side, it's for keeping the tail lift securely in place when the system is depressurized (without it will droop slightly when depressurized).

Regards,

+ Ari

Thanks for the link to the palfinger. That will help me with a moc of mine.

Nice tail lift. I don't think unimogs have those, but someone will probably point of i'm wrong. No matter if you get more parts you should consider building a box so it looks like the big trucks that deliver stuff to stores. Kinda like this http://www.flickr.co...157623475432877

Thanks. I only came across one Unimog having a tail lift, but as far as I recall there weren't any decent pictures of it. But at least one exists ;-)

A box covering the bed would definitely be good, as it would also allow for a longer lift part. Now it can't be any longer without looking silly with the open bed. Will have to wait some time before I dare to suggest to the wife I'd get some more sets ("for the son", 1 year old ;-).

Nice mod and welcome to the Eurobricks community arik.

Looks nice, I would love to see a more detailed picture. You can upload your photos to brickshelf.com (800 pixels wide by 600 tall max) and then link them to Eurobricks with no size limits!

Cool mod. Welcome to the form

Thanks! It seems I can't register to Brickshelf, but here goes a few pictures I put to Flickr:

Nice work, and Flickr is better imo anyway

Can Anyone help me I'm trying to take my Unmog to school show to my teachers but how in the world are you going to move that masev truck ?????????????????

It is my truck with full IR and FF functions . And atachments

A good size box, work out with the staff ahead of time to store it in an office till needed. If your parents are available have them drop/pick-up.

That's just awesome, I have found my next attachment.

Thanks I'll definitely do that

Hi all I just picked up this set new in box. I had a question before building, what would be the number one reccemendation to change from the standard building instructions ? I am leaning toward the steering friction issue. I plan to mod for RC later , but I would like to get it built optimally first.
