There were a stack of yellow blocks. Is that cribbing? Do you supply any other air tools for repair? Do you take any ground anchors? Picket stakes or ground wedge or Deadman bags?
Thank you so much for your extremely informative series of videos, it has certainly helped me in piecing it all together ! I look forward to the day that I can commission a truck from Unicat. Cheers
This was a really useful video, thank you. I am curious about the brand and type of the straps and the mechanical winch. Could you please share that information?
Almost forgot .. I see you do have a small shovels. I would recommend a bit bigger one, at least one. And also something like maxtracks , simply traction boards, to get you out of deep snow/sand/mud.
In the US, for water, a potable water hose, with inline water filter. Especially if you have never gotten water from a new source. The US puts all sorts of chlorine into the water to kill bacteria.
I would love to see a video of your beginnings. How you got into this amazing craft, and the things you went through to get to were your are now. I'm sure that would be a very interesting video, story. Thank you for all these videos. THEY ARE SO MUCH HELPING ME GET THROUGH THE HARDEST TIME OF MY LIFE. THANK YOU.
Hello, we have looked at electric toilets but do not have practical experience as we decided not to use them for the following reasons. a. Some systems need LPG for incineration. As we prefer not to have LPG on board due to problems of international supply and restriction when shipping or when going through tunnels, those systems are not a option. b. Electric systems need a lot of electric power for incineration and have a limteed capacity before you have to burn it. All systems are not as simple as a toilet system should be. That´s why we use a ceramc toilet bowl with a valve and a tank right underneath - to us, there s no less compley, reliable and comfortable system. As we only need 0,2 liters of water per flush, the tank has to be emptied only every 10 days.
What a great summary of the useful tools. However, do you, or could you, have those summarized in written somewhere ? Like small shopping list. And I would be interested also in some names/brand hints .. especially for that manual winches and torque wrench + sockets. One last question .. why air-powered rattle gun? Is the onboard air system of trucks you build powerful enough to feed that for extended time, so for example Unimog + those rim-lock wheels that's a heck lot of bolts to unscrew and screw back again.
a way to pull yourself out even if you do not have a point straight out of the vehicle, simply let the wire go over a throwing block like here and over to what you can use to pull in ruclips.net/video/zeM_7ThvdPs/видео.html
Had me chuckling at the “you don’t need a winch” part. A 15 ton vehicle is going to need a winch eventually...or a heavy duty wrecker of some sort. Or else you stay on the hard parked roads.
I want to thank you for all the video's that you provide, for me its a great help putting together every thing I need to hit the road.
Thank you very much.

Thomas - are the wheel chokes a Unicat designed item or are they available commercially? Very neat. Haven’t seen anything like this before.
Volvo truck is offering the foldable chockes.

Very interesting video, are you able to fit all these tools & equipments to the underbed storage compartment? This is a lot of tools
Thomas, do you offer these items in a kit we could purchase with the expedition vehicle? This was very helpful!

I would like to hear his history as well. What a great craft and career in building.
Thanks, next one, to choice the good Spoon for the soup ? to tie our shoes offroad ? etc.
Unicat the best 👍👍👍👍
Thomas, have you any experience with Cinderella Incineration, Gas or electric toilets?
Hello,
we have looked at electric toilets but do not have practical experience as we decided not to use them for the following reasons.
a.
Some systems need LPG for incineration.

b.

As we only need 0,2 liters of water per flush, the tank has to be emptied only every 10 days.
Thanks Thomas, what you explain all make good sense, just dread the idea of emptying a black tank.
Gosh, I wish I could work there.
What a great summary of the useful tools. However, do you, or could you, have those summarized in written somewhere ? Like small shopping list.

Would you want to be my best friend😉
Thomas once again fantastic information well presented many thanks I wish you were in Australia 😊
Hello, thanks for the very interesting video. What is the length you recommend for the tirfor cable? Thanks

Perhaps you could get a dedicated lapel microphone for that camera. The sound recorded with camera microphone so fr from the speaker is rather poor.
wie wäre es, wenn sie die Videos auch auf Deutsch kommentieren würden
Unfortunately German is spoken only in Germany, English all over the world ....
Thanks for your precious time
Thanks to you for watching the video, don't forget to subscribe to the channel
indeed very helpfull information. Great informative video.
Very interesting. Thanks from Australia.
In my experience a half inch air wrench is not big enough for wheel nuts, most of the time a 3/4 inch will have a hard time.
Realy nice video it wold be nice with product links :)
Again Great movie - Thank you.
You are number 1, best regards
Which air compressor you advice ?
We usually use VIAIR, but there are many excellent brands.
@@UNICATexpeditionvehicles Thank you Thomas, I am totaly fascinated by your company achivements, real UNICAT
Don't use a metal pole to lift shoddy overhead electrical cables dude...
it's not metal ....
@@UNICATexpeditionvehicles Glad to hear it xD
