My 416 Doka

Bought this one a few years ago which started its life as a
German railway machine. In good useable condition. A disc brake
model with hydraulics & PTO.
PS Have attached a 2nd picture showing the DIN plate and front
railway gear which is very substantial. I didn't have any rail
wheels.

Tidy looking machine :)
Did it have the rail gear on when you got it?

Yes it still had some rail gear, two substantial brackets one
front & rear with hydraulics to raise and lower the machine, I
removed these but still have them. Don't know if they are of any
use, or interest to anyone?

They're the kind of thing that get taken off, binned, and then
in a few years time when they don't exist any more will probably
be worth something :) and if it came with the din plate (the big
heavy plate that sits below the one with the triangular slots on
the front) definitely keep that! :P

The only guy that does anything with 406 road rail gear is Alex
price (Ac price ) ping him a email you never know he may be in
need !
Looking at it she's a fairly late Mog what's the top speed?
also are they Mitas tyres?

The Unimog has 'A C PRICE engineering' on the front number
plate, so it may have been through their hands in the past. It
does 50mph at 2400 rpm, and yes they are MITAS tyres which seen
good, not too noisy on the road. A photo of the front rail gear
I removed and still have.

An indicated fifty on your speedo and the 405 Mitas tyres I
would check it against a sat nav but you could have high ratio
hubs @ 2800 you should be able to get about 56 mph. If your
speedo is showing a low speed and your sat shows your doing 60 +
you've got high ratio diffs !!! Does it only rev to 2400 ?
Regarding your mitas check the speed rating it should be g and
load rating 136.

It does rev higher than 2400 rpm, but I think 50 mph is fine.
The tyres say maximum speed 50 kph. I can't see a load rating
mark.

Tonyt,
look at what you have typed please.......
You are potentially doing 50mph on tyres that are only rated to
50kph which is 31mph.
If you have an accidnet or get pulled over you could find
yourself in some smell doo doo :o
