This trip to the Hammers was in Nov 2009 with Trent Hershey, Dan Dreher in the Mog, and the guys from Predator Off Road in Auburn Ca. This video was taken from a new trail in the Hammers, Johnson Valley Ca, called Spooners! Here are the unimog specs: 1956 404 Unimog, Stock 6cyl 85hp Motor, Stock transmission, transfer case, stock portal axles, stock gears, with a stock Crawler box 350:1 1st gear ratio. What's not stock: Roll cage, seats, 12V conversion, softer springs (Rear 4" TJ springs in the front and 3/4 Ton Aerostar van springs in the rear) Fox gas shocks, Bilstein bump stops on all 4 corners, Full Hydro, TRW Beadlocks & 39.5" BFG Krawler Red labels. There are obviously a few other non stock items like the back tool box, solar power panel, HD headlights, 2guys rock crawling lights, Sound system, new gas tank, skid plates etc.

I Love Land Rovers, and have seen them do some amazing stuff, but Unimogs are a different level to every other 4x4, particularly the smaller models like this 404. It is no just all the locking diffs, amazing axle and chassis articulation, it is also the super low ratio gears and brilliant approach, departure and ramp brake over angles that allow it to crawl in a controlled manner over these damaging obstacles without get caught on rocks or having to use too much power. Class machines, and this one from the 1950s!!!!

@mijomcgyver6270 3 года назад

Utterly amazing vehicle. The boulders that the truck couldn't crawl over it simply shoved aside as it constantly crept forward almost effortlessly. Props to the expert driver, as well.

@franktechmaniac7488 4 года назад

Originally an Unimog should be able to drive where a horse could walk. But this one drives, where goat get stuck. Crazy!

@hugolafhugolaf 3 года назад

That truck is the honey badger of off road vehicles.

@Liljan1979 10 месяцев назад

I love how every time it snags a rock it doesn't get caught on it, the rock gets caught on the unimog. xD

@JaiisonBANKS 8 лет назад

Damn. That unimog looks like a freakin spider on those rocks. Amazing capabilities.

@MDCBilge 11 лет назад

I love it! @ 1:29, oh there's a boulder in the way, lift a push for a little more clearance, no problem. @ 2:29, front suspension is hung up on another boulder, nah, just move it. I love my Wrangler, but my hat's off to your Mog. Well done!

@ajadrew 6 лет назад

My old man had a 406, used to drive from Uk to Germany regularly to pick stuff up, never failed as it also never failed in the rough. But his rough wasn't as rough as this! Unimogs, the best...

@alchristopher5701 10 лет назад

The most awe inspiring Unimog. I have seen.

@user-bd5md5cm2j 3 года назад

Dialed in just right for crawlin...👍🇺🇸

I am from South Africa where I drove the MK1 and MK2 in the military for 4 years. Absolutely incredible off road. Loved the fact that you could use all 4 gears in reverse as well (no benefit, but a novelty). Not great on the open road giving about 105 - 120 km/h max speed. But who cares, right? Its what it does in the bush that matters. Great video Dan Dreher!

@vikkidio 3 года назад

Wow awesome! ...and also pretty impressed by the Jeep following!!! What a wonderful video.

@matrobie1627 10 лет назад

Very cool. Avid jeeper but respect to any serious rid and your unimog is one. Props.

@alansmlth7989 6 лет назад

Wow ,nothing beats a UNIMOG. It`s a True Legend. Just try and find one for sale.

@bigbluegpr 11 лет назад

That's a sweet 404. Love the way you have it set up, and the way you drive it.

@markharrell625 7 лет назад

It literally moves mountains.

@ufjk0816 10 лет назад

very cool, that is best rock-climb truck I every saw.

@dansflb 14 лет назад

@flight2k5 Yeah I haven't had any problems and I give those gears hell. What I don't do is bind them up and I don't bounce to get up obstacles. I usually don't use much gas at all, but I do put them through some hard lines.

@steveducell2158 8 лет назад

a relative of mine had one on his dairy farm back in the 60's. It had a 3 point hitch along w/ a pto. They used if for light to medium tractor duties. Baled hay with it, could handle a 3 bottom plow. Plus it could go down the road at 45 mph.

@LittleBlueSubie 11 лет назад

Who said Jeep in here> German engineering FTW. This is f'n sick

@sterlingbrown5 9 лет назад

404 all the way! I can't wait until I get mine.

@MrMichaelpaul45 12 лет назад

Hi there,that was a great piece of driving i enjoyed watching it & thanks for showing this 1956 Unimog 404 doing what it dose best,it is a great looking off road truck,what a ride what a ride :-).

@dansflb 11 лет назад

Ricardo I rarely reply to unimog posts but it's a Unimog no matter how you look at it. Jeeps and other rigs go through far more extreme modifications then my mog has gone through. In fact the most modifications my mog has had have been to the body. The extreme suspension mods you talk about are only softer coil springs and longer gas shocks. That is hardly extreme, no lift, nothing else. Yes my mog is modified, but a stock mog with a couple hundred dollars in mods will go everywhere my mog will.

@BBDOGGER 9 лет назад

Love that Mog. Looks relaxing.

@KLAYCO47 11 лет назад

that thing is extremely capable

@RichardsWorld 11 лет назад

That must feel like driving by the seat of your pants. Driving and always worried your going to really "F_CK" up. My friend had a Unimog but it seemed like a commercial type vehicle. It had like a air compressor with it and if he wanted to he could control each wheel independently. He could made it do a 360 sitting in place like a tank. I haven't seen it in about 15 years. Back then I though it was an ugly duckling. I'd like to check it out again to drive it myself. He said I could borrow it once but I was thinking what was I going to do with that thing. I was just living in an average neighborhood and didn't go off-roading.

@promotosport1 12 лет назад

just saw an ad locally for one of these - about 5500 bucks - if I had the cash laying around I would buy one... thing frikkin rocks!!

@wmden1 12 лет назад

@dansflb I did some mudding and a little rough terrain in my youth (1970s) in a 1954 Dodge Power Wagon. It was a rag, but a great old rig. It couldn't touch this. I believe the extreme amount of articulation/travel between your front and rear axels is your biggest asset. Driver skill helps also. You have a fine machine and entertaining video. Thanks.

@johnfaribayasminpebblebroo507 10 лет назад

Just came across this - normally lame but this is awesome - you can barely climb up this let alone drive over it. Good driving - check 3:20 but its all good.

@lucasschofield8716 7 лет назад

great to see someone using a classic Mog for what it was built for, would be a shame to keep it locked away gathering dust. impressive twist between the axles, I've never seen a modern one be able to twist so far.

@dansflb 13 лет назад

No there are actually all kinds of unimogs ranging in all kinds of size tires. Mine is a 404 and it came stock with 37" tires, the tires that I have on it right now are 39" BFG Krawlers, portal axles are amazing!

@1234goalieguy 11 лет назад

"I like how the Jeep behind him is going everywhere he is." I also like that the jeep cannot run on motor oil, how it is 45 years older, and how it will not go on for another 50 years like the mog will do.

@franktechmaniac7488 4 года назад

This MOG has a petrol engine (6 cylinder inline, 2.8 L, 110 HP), will not run on oil.

+Larry Jensen Just did a small scratch on the side! I was even shocked.

@dansflb 13 лет назад

There are custom 6x6 mogs out there but they are very uncommon. I have seen one in person and I have seen several online. They wouldn't be as capable off road but probably would be good for hauling or towing.

@YasserButt 11 лет назад

What a suspension and power! Awesome driving!

@Damie236 4 года назад

Best 4X4XFAR!

@kookamunga2458 7 лет назад

I think speed has nothing to to with 4 wheelin àt all except in the sand dunes . A light fast 4x4 is best for that . On every other type terrian the unimogs rule. They can handle big stumps ,boulders ,mud , steep hills and deep snow . Driving slow in nature is more pleasure . People have time to look at things . If you want to race take a fast car to your local race track.

@philippholzmann461 8 лет назад

Unbelievable!

@Choice777 13 лет назад

imagine parking a unimog like that on the high school's fence :D then going to class

@Luther1543 9 лет назад

great german vehicle a bit pitty to hit it against those stones, i think after the decades of work it should be restored and preserved in a museum and seldom taken out for a ride to an unimog show.

@TobiasLeininger 7 лет назад

Why? It still runs as good as new after half a decade ... no need to do anything to it ;)

@mibars 13 лет назад

Massive torque on wheels with this gearing... Moving huge rock at 1:30 with ease, crushing rocks with rubber tires at 3:46... Are those axles made of unobtanium or what?!?

'Universal Motorgerät' (Unimog is just an acronym like Humvee) means almost the same as Multipurpose Vehicle. Else than the Hummer it has been built for agricultural, landscape conservation and road mending purposes in the first place and soon got adopted and beloved by the army, alpine rescue services and municipal utilities, while the farmers sooner or later forgot about its tractor skills. But there is another little difference. While the Humvee is an unreliable, thirsty and chunky repair shop dweller, built with the poorest thinkable understanding of quality and craftsmanship, the Unimogs are really tough and sturdy. It's the Mauser '98 action's vehicle equivalent.

Great job for the Jeep keeping up.

@rickitickidicki 11 лет назад

Driver, If I were in your shoes I would get a television screen in the truck to broadcast the spotter's camera view to you...because no offense, but you need a better spotter. I sure hope it wasn't your son or summat! BTW the BEST absolute Best rock crawling I have ever seen. I know alot has to go to the equipment, but you can put an idiot in the best of machinery and it'll look like garbage, so here's to making the machines look friggin' awesome...Cheers!

@dansflb 11 лет назад

You can pick up a stock 404 Unimog for anywhere between $5k-15k depending what kind of condition it is in. My unimog has everything you could possibly do and still have all stock unimog drivetrain and motor on it. If you want this ultimate Mog it's for sale for $35k. To build one like it plan to spend more, but stock mogs are still awesome they are just not as practical or comfortable as mine is, oh and not as capable.

@V2FRANK 12 лет назад

@サンパチ-o4o 4 года назад

やはり、そうなんだよね😍 減速比を低くしてアイドリング回転数あたりの低速で、タイヤのグリップ力を確認しながらセクションを通過するのが良いのですな～日本にも[ダブルミッション]に改造したジムニーで低速低回転で沢登りする人が居るけど、考え方は同じかも知れない。

@drunksmokingjurkk I dont know much about mogs but I do remember back when I was a freshman in highschool a friend of mine had what he called a MOG in his backyard, and sure enough it was made by mercedes.. only it had 3x wheels on each side of it...Now I was a gearhead in highschool and im not saying this guy did not modify this thing... because this guy helped me build a custom rod... only his Mog was his passion... I have searched for a vid of 6 wheel mog without success...maybe his was uniq
