Custom STRETCHED CAB!
The Unimog 404s are known for having cramped interiors, this rare hardtop model
has had the cab stretched back 14 inches so that large or tall folks can drive
in comfort. We also have installed some nice comfortable seats that are seen in
pictures further down the page... The factory Unimog seats were not nearly as
comfortable... Due to the stretched cab, we also had a
custom bed built. The back and the sides fold down (and remove) for easy
loading. Also note the custom built and very stout rollover protection. |

Close up of the front winch workings. Ya gotta see this industrial size
hook! This monster winch has a HUGE hook, Huge cable and very long cable...
I didn't actually measure how long the cable was but the one time I tried to
unreal it all we stretched it way down the street and there was still one wrap
left... wow!
|
 |
| Custom fitted and very rare
(FRENCH) pop out windows.. The bottom pushes out for better
ventilation (like the old VW busses)..
These are actual RARE Unimog pop out windows but had to have the wiper motors
moved to the top to be custom fitted to this truck... Much cooler to drive
in the summer time with the better ventilation... |
|
| Nice
clean interior.. Although the truck is 24volts and uses two 12 volt
batteries (OPTIMAS!) I have also installed a 12 volt circuit and separate 12
volt fuse box which allows the installation of normal 12volt radios, CBs, GPSs,
and so on... |
 |
| Some
of the Dynamat insulation on the roof. We did the engine cover as
well so it isnt so hot to drive this monster truck. |
 |
Interior view..
Has HAND THROTTLE so you can use your brake and clutch with your feet and
control the throttle with yout hand, also can lock into place to
keep the truck at a constant speed.
Also has tilt meter ...
6 speeds forward
and 2 speeds reverse..
2 wheel or 4 wheel or 4 wheel locked operation. woohoo! |
 |
| COMFY
seats and with the stretched cab there is even storage room behind the
seats!. |
 |
other
interior view, you wont find many Unimogs with this kind of comfort!. AND
SEAT BELTS!
|
 |
| Rear
mounted WARN 24 volt electric winch!. Its amazingly convenient to have
winches on front AND rear... |
 |
rear
view, notice loops on top of rear tailgate, when the tailgate is down they are
steps!You
might notice the white cross near the differential, its part of the low
light military convoy lighting, its non functional now but we left it on
cause folks always ask us about it.. |
 |
| nice side view.. Check those tires! |
 |
| And one of my favorite features is the roof observation/escape hatch... |
 |
Oh, I almost forgot to mention, this truck has an onboard air compressor and air
tank mounted under the rear bed of the truck. The air compressor is driven by
the engine and cranks up over 100PSI of air. Easily running most air tools.
Right now the air system is disconnected but I have all the plumbing and
the regulator. I was going to rebuild the system with two airtanks for
added air storage but never got around to it, I have lots of parts
including an extra compressor and extra tank to be included.
