The Ural 4320 is a popular truck that is excellent for use on rough terrain and in forestry. This is facilitated by high ground clearance and a powerful engine. This machine is equipped with YaMZ diesel engines. Power can exceed 300 horsepower. The gear shift scheme is competently designed by the manufacturer of this equipment. Approximately 30 liters of fuel are consumed per 100 km. If this indicator has increased, it is necessary to carry out premature diagnostics of the automotive system.
The winch for the Ural-4320 is necessary for self-pulling vehicles or pulling out other vehicles. Maintenance of the winch consists of directly checking and tightening all fasteners.
How does the checkpoint work?
The KPP-141 device, installed on some Ural models, includes the following elements:
- Coupling mechanism. It helps temporarily separate the engine and transmission. This allows you to change gears without reducing the speed of the power unit.
- Driven gears and shafts. The drive, intermediate and secondary shafts are installed here.
- Synchronizer. It ensures silent operation of the mechanism and equalization of gear speeds.
The gears rotate freely when the neutral mode is engaged, at which time all clutches and synchronizers are in the open position. When the driver begins to squeeze the clutch mechanism and shifts the handle to some other gear, a special fork device begins to move the clutch into the engagement position with the corresponding pair at the end of the gear.
The gear mechanism is rigidly fixed to the shaft and stops spinning on it. The clutch in this position facilitates the transmission of rotational motion and traction force.
While the vehicle is moving, the gearbox is activated by the gear shift knob. It moves sliders equipped with forks, which begin to move the synchronizers at the required speed. A color diagram of gear shifting is in the Ural user manual.
Gear ratios of the Ural box:
- first stage - 5.26;
- second stage - 2.90;
- third stage - 1.52;
- fourth stage - 1.00;
- fifth stage - 0.664;
- reverse gear - 5.48.
Ural motorcycle gearbox with reverse speed
How to independently remove, disassemble and assemble the gearbox of a Ural motorcycle.
Over its long life, the gearbox of the Ural motorcycle has undergone several modifications, including the addition of a reverse gear. The use of a secondary shaft in the gearbox made it possible to increase productivity and significantly reduce the size of the box, which is very important for a motorcycle. Repairing and assembling the gearbox of a Ural motorcycle is not very difficult, and this work can be done independently.
Malfunctions and repairs
Basic malfunctions and repairs of the box:
- Extraneous noise in the mechanism. In this case, it is recommended to conduct an external inspection of the system and replace damaged and worn parts.
- The shafts move along the axis. It is necessary to replace the parts that secure the bearing, or replace failed bearings.
- Unstable operation of the gearbox. This problem may be due to wear on the reverse spline shaft bushings. Damaged mechanisms should be replaced.
- The clutch does not engage fully. In this case, it is recommended to conduct an external inspection of the coupling mechanism for damage and defects, check the level of lubricating fluid in the system and replace damaged elements.
- The fork rods are difficult to move. This malfunction can be caused by damage to the locking pins and synchronizers. It is necessary to replace the mechanisms with new ones.
- If the gearbox switches off spontaneously, it is necessary to adjust the gap between the valves, replace worn synchronizer rings, install new springs, and tighten fasteners.
- If the switching is unclear, you need to remove the cover of the locking device and inspect the main components for wear, replace the clutch and gears.
Gearbox repairs are carried out only with the power unit turned off.
How to adjust
The gearbox is adjusted as follows:
- The vehicle is installed on a special platform.
- Using a jack, slightly raise the front part of the car body and fix it in this position.
- On the transmission control rod, loosen the fastening nuts of the clamp bolt. The nut is loosened 4.5 turns.
- Using a screwdriver, expand the grooves at the end of the traction device and the clamp.
- Move the rod to the neutral position.
- Unscrew the special fasteners.
- Remove the gearbox cover from the control handle. The cover is lowered to the very bottom of the case, and the handle itself is placed in a vertical position with the end up.
- Loosen the clamp mechanism.
- Engage reverse gear when the power unit is not working.
- Install the prepared template into the trim window, as well as the reverse locking bracket.
- The stop of the axial mechanism is inserted into the groove of the template and pressed against the system body.
- Set the required gap between the elements. Tighten the fasteners and clamp.
- Start the engine and check the serviceability of the adjusted gearbox.

Transmission system components
Ural vehicles are valued for their high power characteristics, excellent load capacity, and driving dynamics. The performance indicators of this vehicle are largely influenced by the installed gearbox. This device affects power gain.
The Ural-4320 is equipped with a five-speed gearbox. It has a long service life and can withstand the loads placed on it well. The Ural gearbox housing is attached to the clutch housing. The manual transmission on the Ural car has fixed shaft axles. The upper crankcase cover is equipped with a gear shift mechanism.
Gearbox diagram
The transmission system includes lockable cross-wheel and center differentials. On the truck there is a dependent power take-off box or KZOM.
It should be noted that there is a transfer case on the Ural 4320. It is 2-stage and affects the fuel consumption for each kilometer traveled. This box is securely fixed to the frame with several special rubber pads.
Power take-off box
The Ural transfer box is an additional gearbox. It ensures stable movement of the machine at low speed. The installed Ural power take-off is single-stage. It is necessary to drive auxiliary units.

When to shift gears on a manual transmission: gear shift order and features
Passenger cars are usually equipped with a 4-speed, 5-speed or 6-speed gearbox. On trucks, the number of gearbox gears reaches 12 (due to the use of half stages for more efficient use of internal combustion engine torque under high traction loads).
At the same time, it is the manual transmission that allows you to fully understand the concept of “driving a car.” In order to learn how to drive a manual transmission and professionally drive a car with such a gearbox, you need to understand the circuit diagram of its structure and know the operating principle of its mechanisms.

Valve adjustment for Ural M-67, IMZ
On this engine the recommended clearance is 0.05mm.
Therefore, you will need a probe with exactly this thickness. It also has slightly different saddles, but this does not affect the adjustment process. The motorcycle should also be tilted before starting work. The process occurs as follows: This is how you can easily and quickly adjust the valves. This work is not difficult, but it will avoid many problems with the engine. Also, with properly adjusted valves, flow is reduced.
