Same as a landy. Permanent 4x4 with center diff.

I'd love that. But the pain involved with a gearbox failure isn't worth the pain.

To be fair I don't think you'd have a issue if you entered with open eyes and the understanding that that should be a 15k truck.

But not for me.

yes a lot of truck for the bucks .... and they're always pretty low with their resale prices .... stack it high , sell it low, turnover is king

If i am right on the company selling it they are also linked to another couple of companies in the same area, one of which is not allowed to sell to the public at the moment, Ther is a fair bit about them on the Farming Forum.

What’s wrong with their gearboxes?
Is it not a 8 speed with a gate between 4th and 5th🤔

Mostly parts Mog. It's same era as my 1317 and Merc where giving me parts numbers for that lorry as they couldn't supply without significant lead times.

Is it not a mog box in which case Atkinson via should be able to supply everything if not just graft a mog box in
I seem to remember mercedes use standard bell housing patterns so should be easily done

I expect it's a Merc lorry box with a unimog transfer case on the back.

There's quite a few obsolete bits missing to note... Tacho alone would hurt the wallet
