Specifications
The UNIMOG
404 is considered to be one of the finest all terrain vehicles in the world. The S series
was originally developed for the military, where rough country operation and dependability
are a necessity for an army. From the frame to the drivetrain and to the wheels, the
UNIMOG was designed to negotiate the extremes of terrain and troops that war produces. |
 | The UNIMOG 404.1 is powered by the Mercedes
Benz M-180 engine. The engine is a gasoline fueled, vertical in-line six cylinder,with a
displacement of 2.2 liters. |
| The induction system is a single
Pallas-Zenith cross-country carburetor on the NATO version. |
| Four wheel drive and 100% differential-locks
can be engaged and disengaged while on the move. |
| The transmission is a six speed (six
forward, two reverse), fully synchronized unit with full time rear axle drive and shift on
the fly front axle. Control of the locking differential is accomplished by a single lever
in the cab, pull up on the lever for four-wheel drive and pull up again for locked
operation. The unit can, in addition to these features, be locked or unlocked at any
speed. |
|
| Large diameter wheels and portal axles are
used for high ground clearance. (Instead of a direct line out to the wheel from the
differential, the axle is offset to the top and uses a gear cluster to drive the wheel.) |
| Low center of gravity low, the drive train
is mounted as low as possible. |
| The backbone of the Unimog consists of a
flexible ladder frame with tubular torque cross-members. |
| A highly flexible suspension system of coil
springs and tubes allows impressive axle articulation and ensures driver comfort both on-
and off-the-road. |
|
| The Unimog is fitted with low-pressure
single tires that provide maximum traction in all situations. |
| Large angles of approach and departure
characterize the cross-country aptitude of the Unimog. |
| The small turning radius allows the
Unimog a high degree of maneuverability. |
| The electrical system is a standard NATO 24
volt, with two batteries, and a generator putting out 900 watts. |
|
| Soft tops are fully removable, with fold
down windshields and removable doors. |
| The most common military option for the rear
is a simple flatbed, used for either cargo or troops. |
| Other optional features for the S series are
various PTO devices, with possible drives coming off the front (low speed), rear (high
speed), sides and straight down. |
| The most common applications are front
mounted winches and rear mounted water pumps for the fire fighting trucks. Crawler gears
are also a possibility and will give you an incredibly low final drive ratio. |
