The concept is based on a small UNIMOG (presumably U 90) frame, axles, etc...with a G body (a little wider and with heavy armorplating) and OM 642 engine. raicar Yep. MB certainly has all the parts to build that in-house. I won't ask for the MRSP, though....  | |

Strange that they leave Graz with Canadian plates, thought that would be done after delivery. I got a good look at one a few weeks back at a festival. The Canadian Armed Forces had a display set up. Among many other things, there was a G. I got a good look at it (no detailed photos allowed) and noticed a large spring spacer on the top of the springs - I would estimate about 2.5 inches or so. In addition to this, I believe they use the tallest/stiffest springs. It is definitely a suspension lift. All of the radius arms have drops on the frame mounts to keep caster corrected. There are factory photos of this from several years back. Do a search on the G forum. They get delivered with plates because they are oftentimes sent directly to where the forces are stationed - ie, Afghanistan, etc, having never even touched Canadian soil yet. That style of plate is on all of our military vehicles. Steve (IMG_3394.jpg) Attachments ---------------- IMG_3394.jpg (121KB - 28 downloads) | |
