Acco Bits

[Acco Aus]

Hello all I am new here I have a MK3 and MK4 acco and a 1956 Unimog 404 would appreciate any info anyone can give me on the vehicles and also I am in desperate need of a wiper motor for one off the accos and a winch. Also can anyone tell me what sort of connection was on the end of the winch cable. Mine has just a threaded end?
Thanks
Pete

welcome to the forum. From memory the acco winch just had a hook at the end. If you have a look in the acco threads in here you should find some photos.

As for parts, unless you want a whole Mk.5 I don't know of any parts for sale, but is the wiper motor the same as in the later civilian model accos?

Hi Pete, a forum member here who goes by the name of RUSTY has an Acco winch that he would part with i'm sure. Send him a Private Message if he's not looking. I'll let him know also when I see him next.

Hi Pete,


Here is a photo of the cable end:



Regarding your wiper motor, have you checked that the linkage is not seized? I thought mine was dead, but turned out the wire cable inside the guide tube was a bit rusty and one of the splines which protrude through to outside the cab and join to the wiper arm was seized.

Keep a lookout on ebay for the acco winches, I've seen a few on there...

Here's my MK3 at the moment:
