MAN 6x6 LX 43 from 2001, I would like to increase power from current 244PS. I thing +70 PS will cut it on the higher sand dunes. Should I swap with 400PS or get more power from air intake, exhaust and turbo? I drove only 50.000 km, line 8 Man engine with Bosch injection and have No oil consumption o...

I had simular issue on the Man LX 43. The head cylinder (directly underneath the koppling pedal has a small axes moving into the coupling cylinder. If you extend this axes with 1cm it could well be resolved.

Yes the Blue and White KAT is green in Dubai and getting better every week. Now put tiptop ventile extenders to ensure we can deflate quickly and even continue deflating while we drive. We mounted steel pipes with cap near each wheel to protect if from mud, inside we store the inflation tubes. All i...

Hallo, Beim Umrüsten auf größere Leistungen bleibt eins zu berücksichtigen: Die Scheinwerfer werden heißer. Das ist kein Problem auf der Strasse und bei normalem Geländebetrieb. Wenn es aber mit heißen Scheinwerfern ins tiefe, kalte Wasser geht, kann es zum Bruch kommen. Die Original-Scheinwerfer m...

Did some more desert sand dune testing anď we are now where we need to be in terms of weight distribution. We moved crane to front behind cabin, loadbed to aft and increased center axel pressure to 5T by adding 2.5cm steel filler.

In the morning we did awesome desert ride in the dunes. We removed burned out jeep wreck from desert and disposed jeep chassis and engine. On way home were less lucky and needed a recivery truck. Lost air on two tanks due to Waco ventila failure https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170423/87a463f42b81...

Dear Kat Forum, Exellent advise, I read through all tyre specs and we deflated to 25 PSI. We drove 8 hrs non stop in medium high sand dunes (maximum 90m high) with two pilot vehicles and I did not once get stuck. So we make good progress now. I will upload some pictures when I get home tonight. Now...

Yes module is now on with increased pressure to center axel

Weigh session 14 March 2017.pdf I have a X43 LX Man 6x6 with a 1950kg Hytec crane on the back. Initially I thought the crane at the back is better so the two rear axels can take all the load. However in heavy offroad conditions the truck is too much cantilevered so now i move the crane to the front...
