Hi, I have only just discovered your Brilliant channel and am in the process of eagerly viewing your previous content . I am currently rebuilding my 1975 ex national grid 406 and am having difficulty referencing a colour code/ details for the particular shade of green that you have used. Any info would be greatly appreciated . Apologies if you have previously covered this in a video that I have yet to view. Many Thanks - Tony.

Great video and I liked the earlier ploughing match with drone, it adds so much to the overall picture.

She looks good out in the field with a plough on👌👍and people say mogs can’t plough 🙄🤦‍♂

Marvelous, my dream day out, you did really well with no draught control Cheers Ian

Great vid for future reference when I need to change mine. 👍

Very nice Video. Thanks. Great Unimog 421.

Nice to see the old girl out earning 👌. I’ve still got the 406 itch still in me and I keep seeing them popping up for sale 😬🤦‍♂

I'm just torturing myself watching this 😄, dear Santa......... Lovely Unimog, actually doing what it was intended to do. Cheers Ian

Very neat job and an awesome looking unimog

Great vid, good work. Was a wee bit nervous around 14min mark with your overall sleeve and the running PTO stub shaft....

Great video! Did you put again new bolts in for the fly wheel after taking it out for the second rework?

This looks really good! Great video and everything is explained very well.

Great work you did there too 👍🏻 you might start a production, it’s a very good idea it can fold up straight instead of dismounting 💪🏻💪🏻🤔

Looks tidy enough 👌👍 if you didn’t know better you might think it’s factory 😁

Excellent design and fabrication, I enjoyed the vids I don't think there's a modern vehicle I would want over a Unimog of this model. It would make me smile everytime I drove it. Cheers Ian

She’ll look well when it’s done 👍. I was looking to put linkage’s on my 406s but was going down the DIN plate and lifting the linkage on to it (think it’s a farm force type linkage)

Morning I just love this era of Unimog, there's something about the aethetics, proportions, colour and stance. Best of luck Ian

Great to see, come the glorious day I win the lottery a 411 is high on the list. I've alaways wondered, how to you have draught control, no top or lower link draugth sensing? Cheers Ian

Nice job and looks tidy on the back of the old lass 👌👍. Gotta admit, I still got chip all over my 406 with my chipper 😆🤦‍♂️. Lovely jones roll cage I spy as well as a 4potter??😁

Thankful.

Pretty neat job you did there 👍🏻 like the “ad hog” approach to this task 😉looks like it’s always been there .

Very good video! Beutiful little mog, too.

I see you hunted down a third Unimog? From the air filter i would say 421. If the rear fenders are original it must be a 421.122 so 40 or 45 hp?

Great work as always.

Awsum looking Mog

Good job not getting soil in that open cab

Funny enough I was talking to my mate about your 411 as he’s as bad as me at watching eBay 😆. Talking of eBay…. There’s another 411 blower turned up for sale!😳😍

Well that brings back memories of me fitting a banana box on my 406😆. Ironical I fitted a 421 box to my 406 snowblower, you’ve done the reverse! I would say, keep a spare set of seals for your box or be ready to keep filling with oil 🙂. Nice to see a rockinger being fitted👍 if you ever get chance to buy a muller-mitteltel trailer, get it! They’re a lovely trailer.

I‘m wondering about the engine. Is this the om616? Doesn‘ t sound like that. And you‘re driving really fast 😂

Great informative videos you male om our beloved mechanical friends 💪🏻😃🤩🤩🤩

I really like your unimog,I own a unimog 1600 agri in Ireland brilliant machine's to work on Keep the video's coming 👍👍👍

Odličnom isti sistem pravim sada za sebe . Svaka čast 👏👏👏👏

Always nice to have the "Banane" on a Unimog and a second one with perfectly good spares. In some weird twisted way the chain driven relocating gearbox wasn't too far off. The really old 401s and some 411s also had a really simple chain drive one. Open, with no guard, fixed to the holes in the frame end left and right with a bar going to both sides just below the tow hitch. It had the secondary purpose of stiffening the tow hitch for higher tung weights. Early 421 already had the relocation box shaped like yours but smaller and still chain driven on the inside. So whoever built it was on the right track but not there yet. The chain also shouldn't really have to be that tight to function per design. But the chain was probably too weak to transmit the power spikes. If I remember correctly the chain gearboxes on the Mogs had double row chains. The wear on your sprocket probably didn't help. One thing I noticed: your rear cross member seems to be thinkered with? Looked to me like there was weld on the bottom corner, which should just be bend? The additional plate around the hitch and the hole for the PTO seems also a bit weird? It looks like someone tried to beef it up, which surprises me as it's already rated to pull 13+t at full speed (which it will never reach). The banana gearbox is important if you need your pro center for like a muck spreader. But if you just want it lower, to do your cardans a favour, there is a little hack. You can just mount the bearing block of the PTO below the cross member on the same holes. You only have to take an additional look at how far your axle can travel and maybe limit that. But I see quite some people doing that. I also saw somebody mount the PTO bearing block below the axle on the rod where the lower links mount to. Not just that it costs ground clearance, but it must be hell for your joints.

Mog-nificent!

Unimog in its natural habitat

Great Unimog 👌

living the dream there mate, amazing machines

Original Fast trac.....

Thanks for the great video and the good explanations. Greetings from Germany :-)

the unimog 411 ist the great brother form the land rover

best greatings from germany :-)

I really enjoyed this video I have love unimogs my hole life now 60 years of age still don't have one my favorite ones are 421, 411 ,406 tractor I hope some day being in the USA state of Rhode Island ! Very hard to get a good unimog with not large cost ! Keep up the good work! 😊😊👍

Ahh I did wonder where that mog had gone. I think you’re doing the right thing, you only get history once and it’s easily lost.

One of the hardest lessons I’ve learned in owning unimog’s and MB trac’s is parts ain’t cheap! And when you buy them, buy with the spec you want. Saying that, I’m daft enough to buy something bare bones and build it up to spec 😆🤦‍♂

Nice little project you’re doing 👍 I converted a 406 snow blower to at spec, as you say all the mounting points were ready to accept linkages and spider frames. Impressive to think that the uk bound 411s were driven over my one man😳. I’ve only just driven my first 411 the other day even though I’ve friends with them but both are in restoration at the min 🤦‍♂

When I was about fourteen to seventeen years old I often saw and was aboard Unimog truck and thereafter I went to continue my study in another island. I eversince never rode Unimog truck and keep dreaming of possessing the truck myself while I am 71 years old now. Unimog truck is the best of the truck of the class.

Selling this machine with agric attachments how much

👍

Hi, as far as I understood it the 411 never came with double rams from the factory. They always had the single cylinder version. Well, that is not completely right. The early 411 with only pneumatics had two air cylinders for the 3 point linkage, but as far as the hydraulics are concerned. Similarly early 421s with the 40 and 45hp also came with the single cylinder version from factory. Another difference seems to be the big mount for the lower links. The early 421 really shared an identical frame with the late 411. However, the 411 was only available with the F gearbox and the F axles , whilst the 421 switched to the G versions in the late 60, still on the U40 and U45. Another difference seems to be, that the later 421 have two holes for the big mount for the lower links and the early 421/411 usually seem to have just one. However, that's all just how they came from the factory. As you described it, everything fits everything so everybody fittet whatever they had or wanted over the years, no matter original or from another model. I heard it can get tight on the 411/early 421 with the double cylinders and a PTO. But it still fits and you'll probably cross that bridge when you get there. When you limit the axle travel you could also mount the PTO below the rear crossbeam, maybe already mitigating the need for the additional gearbox.
