Hello Danny, Where are you? Is the vario one of the Irish electricity board ones? Some photos of it would be nice. I'm out of the country for a month but if you're on my way to Dover I'd like to see it. You never know it may change all my plans for the month :-) Cheers Luke

Yup! that was the one. Much to my disgrace it wasn't with me when the photo was taken. Never got to take it as far as I wanted to.

Now sold, thank you for your interest.

Worst case isn't going to be anything your brakes or chassis steering can exert on the mounts. It's going to be one rear wheel hitting a curb at 10 mph. Or driving on rocky piste One side of the chassis goes up suddenly, pushing the whole box up. The mount on the impact side is completely...

There's a spare wheel on the roof and indeed a spare tyre hanging on the latter. Europeans and Americans have different standards for "enough" power when designing vehicles :-) The max rated weight of the Pinz is 3900 kg. 100 hp is enough to get you into trouble, gearing, tyre deflation and...

Yup. very special, this body was originally intended for a G-wagon. The original purchaser wanted better off-road capacity so he went for the Pinz.

Thanks Vince, I've just signed up to it, awaiting approval :-)

Unfortunately not. It's one of the shortfalls. On the positive side, you learn to get organised. When you close up the back, prepare to drive off and realise you've left your whatever in the back, or vice versa in the evening you quickly learn to be more organised :-)

There are plenty of Pinzgauers in the USA, a camper version can't be that tricky.

Hi, just in case the Expedition Camper regulars don't check the for sale section (I know I don't) here's my post for my lovely Pinzi: http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/155681-For-Sale-Action-Mobil-on-a-Pinzgauer-6x6?p=2047898#post2047898

Hi, sadly I can't keep my Pinzgauer. We're a family of four and it's excellent for two, and ok for two and a half :-) So here goes: Base vehicle: Pinzgauer 712 6x6 built in 1981 so the second generation galvanized body. 2.5 litre petrol aircooled engine runs like a Swiss watch. Auxiliary tank...

Gorgeous! Just checked the Rebel website and can't seem to find it anywhere. Shame really. All the comments about serviceability? As long as parts aren't custom a toned down version of this is perfectly serviceable. When you buy a converted vehicle the parts list comes with it. For axles you go...

Apologies if this has already been shared, I couldn't find it. I know, it's gratuitous truck porn. But Hey it's still cool, and very high. There's even a video http://www.ee-mj.com/truck.html

Can't see any circlips holding the spiders in. If they're swaged in you're in a bit of a mess, although I find that highly unlikely. It must be possible to replace them without replacing the whole propshaft. Good luck!

Oooh! Nice big tank. Enormous advantage of a proper Heavy goods vehicle is that you can be self sufficient for so much longer; and big tanks enable you to go from large station to large station ensuring you draw diesel from regularly services sources with no condensation etc. Also remote...

*have a look at how the axle is linked to the transfer case and you'll see that a stretch is somewhat complicated. Not a matter of putting in a prop bearing and lengthening the shaft. Doable, but expensive. I presume you're looking at a Mog because it's a Mog, as you already have a 170hp 4x4...

Agree with you. I reckon if you lift the black power supply box the label on the underside will say 110 - 240v . Very susrprised at how lightweight the mains power supply is. On the same label it'll give a current output. If that is lower than the 12V input requirements I would worry. The power...

Still waiting... ?
