HI STEVE what size is that one mate and what will crane lift thanks jon

 

unimog 406 (u900)

the crane will lift 2 ton close in and 500kg at 4metres

Shed loads jon!

 

Looks like a bed mounted fairly capable one at that

 

we mounted an extra chassis on the x frame so as it can still let the main chassis of the mog flex

I see nice and easy way round mounting on a dimond sub chassis .. better than a crane mount i saw at the apf.. you ever find the need for legs ?

Aren't the old ones just the prettiest looking mogs around. Great to see it still able to do a days work and still be looked after.

Are unimogs really that versatile? we do domestic & small scale site clearance, i need a bigger vehicle than our transit, over 3.5 t is no issue because i have class 2 and c1 +e. If i upgrade to a wagon im still stuck on road but my carrying capacity is better, or do i go unimog and go on and off road?

Yes

Am i right in thinking that you don't need an operators licence? can park it at home?

[skyhuck]

Depends where you live, not sure many would appreciate one outside their house or even on next doors drive.
