Need a DoKa cab for my 406 restoration project - Benzworld.org - Mercedes-Benz Discussion Forum

I'm restoring a Case 406 and am selling off the Case deck,dump box and all the hydrulics. I want to replace the cab with a crew cab. Anyone have one that they want to sell or trade for? Or know where I can get one from. I don't mind a little rust, just not a rot box. Thanks for your help.

How bad is the dump body?
I'd might be interested in it. What are you asking for it?

Does anyone know if you can have a dump body on with the hydro cyclindars for the back hoe? (I'm guessing I can't have the backhoe on with the dump bed however.)

inchman,
The box is only good as a pattern, it has a lot of rust. I would just build a new one. But the dumo cyl. and set up that fits the case frame is in good condition. I will sell all for $350.00 and the buyer arranges all shipping or picks it up. Let me know if you want it. Von

Thought I would update everyone on my restoration. I have a DoKa cab coming that I got in England. Should be here by the end of the month![8D] Here are a few photos of the Mog as it sits today. I have just put the rebuilt axles back on the sandblasted frame. Motor and tranny were cleaned up and repainted. Hope to have it done by the early spring. Von

Sorry for the delay. I don't know how I missed this question. Anyway..... yeah... its been done. Do a google search for UNissaMog. (Nissan Hardbody on a Mog) Also there is others out there with other bodies. Ive seen pics of a chevy on a mog.

Looking sweet. when your done ship me your shop so I can do that to my Mog.

Wow! That is a good looking job!, I am glad to see all the good work you are doing.
We can officially pronounce you as a â€œcertified true Mogerâ€œ.
I hope you will be able to finish without any major set backs and you get to enjoy your Mog soon, it will attract more gawking eyes than a Lamborghini Murcielago.
I was always curious, in your first set of pictures you have an old truck next to your shop, it seems to me like an old British truck like a Leyland?

I feel like Gareth and wonder why people that have a specialized vehicle like a Unimog donâ€™t take the minimal care and maintenance and at least wash the salt and spray it with a little kerosene before parking it. Mine was sucking flakes of rust from the rusted air filter canister.
