UAZ farmer diesel technical specifications

The Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant specializes in the production of all-wheel drive vehicles: SUVs and minibuses. The products of this automobile plant have been known since Soviet times in the form of the universal “Tablet” - UAZ-452, on the basis of which all kinds of special vehicles were created: ambulances, police “pativans”, cash-in-transit armored cars, emergency service vans. An overview of all modifications may take several pages. “Farmer” UAZ is another reliable and unpretentious workhorse among the domestic “UAZs”.

UAZ-39094 “Farmer”: technical characteristics

What should a purely masculine car be like for it to become a faithful friend and assistant both at work and at leisure?
First of all, reliable, durable, functional and unpretentious. One of the Ulyanovsk auto models has exactly these qualities. This is a universal cargo-passenger all-wheel drive SUV with a 4x4 wheel arrangement. It is equipped with a spacious 5-seater cabin and a compact but spacious cargo platform, so it is ideal for transporting people and for transporting all kinds of cargo weighing up to 1075 kg.

The name “Farmer” speaks for itself: this machine is intended for entrepreneurs running their business in the agricultural sector. It is “not afraid” of dirt roads and off-road conditions, has good driving characteristics and a low price.

What to choose?

You shouldn't turn your back on old station wagons, for example. The same Mercedes-123/124, Passat B3 (on spacers), bought for 100 thousand rubles and brought to life for 100-150 thousand, will carry cargo in exactly the same way as Largus, but at the same time the owner will be able to repair them himself, and do not depend on the dealer.

Probably the most reasonable thing when choosing a machine for a novice farmer is to start from its efficiency and cost of maintenance. It’s better to buy cheaper something that is not completely dead and drives, patch it up, and put the rest into business.

The owner of the “Everyday Farmer” TV channel, for example, actually bought a VW T3. It is tall, passable, the consumption of this minibus is up to 6-7 liters. You can transport the heifer to the veterinarian, hay, and feed. This car is enough for him, it breaks down, but pays for itself. It’s just that on the T3 it’s already difficult to get a box, an engine, and so on.

If the farm is already generating income, then you can switch to a Sprinter, or even look at pickups like the L200 or HiLux.

There are many aspects to choose from. Write your vision of the situation in the comments, it is very interesting to listen to the opinions of those involved in agriculture on this matter.

History of the creation of the UAZ-39094 “Farmer”

The development of all-wheel drive light-duty off-road trucks began at the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant back in the late 50s of the 20th century. The “great-grandfather” of the current models was the UAZ-450D, which was replaced in 1966 by the UAZ-452D, produced unchanged until 1985. The successor of the “genus” was the UAZ-3303 two-seater boat truck. It was distinguished by a simple and durable design, which made it possible to operate it on any roads and in any climate, and to carry out maintenance and repairs in harsh field conditions.

Based on the UAZ-3303 model, various modifications of trucks with a carrying capacity of up to 1.5 tons were created, equipped with isothermal and grain vans, fuel and milk tanks, aerial platforms and drilling rigs. In addition, cars with booths for comfortable transportation and even short-term accommodation of people, the so-called “shift vehicles,” were produced.

In 1997, the first batch of small-tonnage UAZ-39094 vehicles with an extended wheelbase, on which a 5-seater cabin was already located, rolled off the assembly line of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant. True, due to the increase in the size of the cabin, the cargo platform became slightly smaller, which resulted in a decrease in its carrying capacity to 1075 kg. However, as shown by the high consumer demand for these models, this decision turned out to be correct. Thus, the designers only managed to expand the functionality of an ordinary truck, turning it into a real home on wheels.

UAZ "Farmer" with a double cab and a short cargo platform

As a result of the next modernization carried out in 2011, the basic version of the Farmer began to be equipped with an ABS system, power steering, seat belts and an engine that complies with the Euro-4 standard. UAZ-39094 is produced to this day. It is popular not only among small businesses, but also appreciated by lovers of fishing, hunting and travel.

New cars

Given the domestic realities of farming, there is almost nothing to choose from new machines. Why stuff a utilitarian car with electronics and install complex systems on it, which greatly increases its cost and makes repairs more difficult? In addition, new vehicles that could theoretically be considered for agriculture are generally very low in ground clearance. And it’s rare when a farmer has 1-2 million rubles for a car.

Lada Largus

In the van version, it is an inexpensive commercial vehicle suitable for a small farm. Consumption up to 10 liters, on the highway you can meet 6-7. There are CNG versions running on methane, which is generally beneficial if there is a gas station nearby.

The average price is 600 thousand rubles. Largus ground clearance is 170 mm. These cars run well and pay for themselves. In principle, the quality of VAZ has become acceptable in recent years, so you can take it.

Renault Dokker

A good option for a million rubles. With a diesel engine, the consumption on the highway is generally 4-5 liters, tested. On gasoline 6-7 liters. Ground clearance 190 mm.

There is a fully cargo version of VAN; even a refrigerator can be installed on it. The height of the cabin allows you to carry boxes of meat or berries; there are cargo-passenger modifications with a removable mesh separating the cargo compartment. The car is very versatile and runs for 500 thousand without repairs. Docker is now very popular among farmers, especially those who are focused on eco-farming, milk and spot breeding of products to order at addresses.

Volkswagen Caddy

Different versions accommodate from 3.7 to 4.7 cubic meters of cargo. The Combi version can accommodate up to 7 people or 3.2 m3 of luggage. Extensive warranty (2 years and 12 years for the body).

Caddy has a large selection of engines; turbodiesels are most often chosen for commercial transportation. Average consumption is 5-6 liters. Gasoline versions are also economical, ranging from 7-9 liters per 100 km. Prices – from 1.25 million rubles.

CITROËN JUMPY

The beads are of medium capacity, the golden mean between full-size and “heeled”. Very convenient for long vehicles - the front seat reclines, you can carry timber, boards, rolls of mesh. It actually takes on board up to 1.5 tons of cargo. Consumption is 6-7 liters, on the highway it can be done in 5 with a minimum load. The cost of a new one is from 1.5 million.

For large shipments there is a Jumper version. You can already take a cow to the veterinarian in it and load a couple of rolls of hay. Price – from 1.7 million rubles.

Ford Transit

A Russian-assembled car priced at around 2 million rubles. It is captivating with its prevalence and availability of spare parts. Consumption on the highway is stated at 6-7 liters. All-wheel drive versions are available.

Transits come in three base options, there are on-board and even combined ones. One of the ideal options for farming is a cargo-passenger double cabin with a dump body at the back, on which you can hang an awning. And manure (sand, black soil) can be brought, and small livestock, and products can then be shipped.

Mercedes Sprinter

It is better to buy the new Sprinter for farms that have to transport a lot. The cost of the van is from 2.1 million rubles. Although the new versions of the Sprinter produced in Russia are inferior to the old German vans, they are still better for long runs.

Fuel consumption is 7-10 liters. There are versions with automatic transmission. There are hundreds of variations of the Mercedes Sprinter; for family farming, you can order a cargo-passenger modification. And, of course, driving the Sprinter feels very pleasant to the driver.

Technical characteristics of UAZ-39094

The UAZ-39094 “Farmer” differs from the basic UAZ-3303 in greater power and performance, better cross-country ability and stability. It can rightfully be called one of the most successful cargo-passenger SUVs produced by UAZ.

Engine and transmission

The car is equipped with an extremely reliable and productive power unit ZMZ-40911.10, which has the following characteristics:

type – in-line;
type of fuel – gasoline (octane number not lower than 92);
working volume - 2.693 l;
total number of cylinders – 4;
Max. power – 112.2 hp (82.5 kW) at 4250 rpm. in min.;
Max. torque - 198 N*m at 2500 rpm. in min.;
engine weight without special fluids – 190 kg;
Max. speed – 115 km/h;
average fuel consumption per 100 km is 10 liters (at a speed of 60 km), 15 liters (at 100 km).

A complex microprocessor system controls injection and ignition. It also ensures optimal engine operation, helping to save fuel under increased loads.

The motor has a combined lubrication system that eliminates friction of parts by spraying oil under pressure. The gas distribution mechanism is made of particularly durable materials, which makes it highly reliable. Without major overhaul, the engine can travel 500,000 km.

Heat removal is carried out through a liquid cooling system, which includes the following elements:

water pump;
radiator;
thermostat;
temperature and alarm sensors;
coolant (any brand of antifreeze or plain water is suitable).

The engine is paired with a transmission consisting of a 5-speed manual gearbox and a 2-speed transfer case, which manually disengages the front axle drive. Some new car modifications are equipped with a forced differential locking system for the rear axle.

Brake system

Another nice feature of the “Farmer” is an effective braking system equipped with a vacuum booster. Moreover, there are disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear. This configuration guarantees that the car will be able to brake as quickly as possible, even in difficult road conditions.

Platform

The UAZ-39094 model is equipped with a spacious onboard platform made of durable metal with wooden flooring. The structure is equipped with removable frame arches for mounting the awning and the awning itself, opening on three sides. Installation and dismantling of the awning is carried out simply and quickly, even by one person. To transport passengers, a row of seats is installed in the body.

Compared to the base UAZ-3303 truck, the Farmer’s platform is located 10 cm lower, which significantly simplifies loading and unloading operations.

The overall dimensions of the cargo compartment are as follows:

length – 2040 mm;
width – 1870 mm;
side height – 400 mm;
height with awning – 1400 mm.

Dimensional and mass indicators

length – 4847 mm;
width – 1990 mm;
height – 2355 mm;
wheelbase – 2550 mm;
curb weight – 1995 kg;
total weight – 3070 kg;
load capacity – 1075 kg;
turning radius – 7.5 m;
fuel tank capacity - 56 l (optional, you can install a second tank of 30 l);
tires – 225/75 R16С, 225/85 R15С.

As already noted, the UAZ-39094 has excellent off-road capabilities, which are provided not only by all-wheel drive, the ability to engage low gears and leaf spring suspension, but also by an impressive ground clearance of 220 mm.

This height allows you to easily overcome 30-degree climbs. The car is not afraid of water obstacles up to half a meter deep. This all-terrain vehicle will behave equally confidently not only on rough terrain, but also when moving through shallow mountain springs with a rocky bottom.

Despite the increased maneuverability of this model, it is still not recommended to abuse this quality. For example, you shouldn’t intentionally drive your car into deep liquid mud, otherwise you might not be able to get out without a tractor.

Overcoming obstacles on the UAZ-39094

The passenger compartment is equipped with a small table and three seats, which, if necessary, can be folded, transforming them into a pair of berths. There is a special spacious compartment for storing things and equipment.

The disadvantages of the rear seats include their rigidity and the inability to install a child seat.

The situation is better with the front seats. They are equipped with headrests and have the function of adjusting the distance to the steering wheel and the position of the backrest.

In the cold season, a comfortable temperature in the rear of the cabin is ensured by a powerful heater, and in the front there is a stove with the ability to adjust the temperature. In hot summers, you can use the ventilation hatch located in the roof to further cool the interior. The excellent vibration and noise insulation of the cabin deserves all praise. It should be noted that this is a real luxury for cargo and passenger vehicles.

The frame was reinforced at the power steering mounting points and around the body supports - these areas are highlighted in color.

Compared to the previous Farmer, the new one starts calmly, without convulsions or shudders - it picks up speed happily. The clutch, however, grabs at the very top. But it’s okay, I got used to it. I also got used to the sweeping shifts of the five-speed manual.

The ride quality and energy efficiency of the suspension are impressive. The Farmer passes even the monstrous-looking pit with barely noticeable swaying. That’s why in regions with bad roads Ulyanovsk cars are so valued! They also love UAZs for their excellent cross-country ability. I was running around like crazy through the back streets of the factory territory in order to park the car. In vain. He overcame all the proposed obstacles using only rear-wheel drive. I only had to connect the front axle a couple of times, and it didn’t even come down to downshifting.

For those for whom the all-terrain qualities of the UAZ are not enough (there are some), starting in July they will be offered a version with a rear cross-axle differential lock. A jeeper's dream! It will apparently raise the level of cross-country ability to a very high level. I hope in the summer, when a car with a lock falls into our hands, we will find a worthy obstacle for it.

Updated UAZ-390945 Farmer: forever young

Cabin of the UAZ-39094 “Farmer”: review

The car is equipped with a double all-metal spacious cabin with a 5-seater interior layout. On the right passenger side there is an additional door providing easy access to the rear row of seats. This model is not distinguished by its refined exterior and interior, but for a work car it’s just right.

Another advantage of the “Farmer” is the convenient location of the engine - it is located under the cab between the front seats, and is accessible from the cabin. To do this, you just need to lift the protective cover. This solution makes it possible to troubleshoot problems in adverse weather conditions.

Passenger compartment of the UAZ-39094 cabin

In addition, heat emanates from the engine compartment, which provides additional heating in winter. Although, it must be admitted that in summer this advantage turns into a huge disadvantage, because it gets very hot in the cabin.

The driver's workplace leaves a controversial impression. I am sincerely pleased with the presence of an updated steering wheel and a multifunctional steering column switch (turns and headlights are turned on on the left, wipers and windshield washer on the right).

The location of the instrument panel is puzzling - it is located in the middle of the panel! To see the indicators, you literally have to look closely, taking your eyes off the road.

Modifications of UAZ-3909

In addition to the Farmer, other types of specialized vehicles were built on a similar basis. For example:

flatbed two-door flatbed UAZ-3303 (Tadpole) with a carrying capacity of 1225 kg with an extended loading platform;
glazed cargo-passenger van UAZ-3741 , designed to transport 9 passengers or cargo of the corresponding weight equivalent;
COMBI UAZ-3909 is a universal carriage-type utility vehicle that can accommodate 6 passengers and over 400 kg of cargo;

UAZ 390995 (cargo-passenger)

UAZ-2206 buses , designed to transport 9 people and about 1 ton of cargo.

Reviews from owners of UAZ-39094 “Farmer”: advantages and disadvantages

Oleg, 34 years old, Ryazan

I bought a new “Farmer” 2 years ago. I chose this model on purpose, because it suits me perfectly for my work. I am the owner of a small furniture workshop, so I often have to transport both materials and finished products. Plus, we often go fishing with friends.

In general, I'm happy with the car. It is reliable, its cross-country ability is beyond praise. With maximum load and with passengers, it easily overcomes both snow and dirt. Only in such conditions it consumes one and a half times more gasoline.

I also don’t like that the interior is blown out of all the cracks in winter; even the standard heaters don’t help, even though they are quite powerful. We'll have to think about the thermal insulation of the cabin. In general, the issue of comfort here is quite acute. Although, what can you ask from a working machine?

Stanislav, 26 years old, Orel

I took the car from the factory just 5 months ago. I am very dissatisfied with the build quality - everything creaks, dangles and vibrates. Noise insulation is good, but the sounds are made by parts inside the cabin, so it does not help.

The rust that appeared on the body added to the “vivid” impressions. Where is she from, since the car is brand new?! You can already imagine what will happen to hardware in a couple of years. In my opinion, “Farmer” has many more disadvantages than advantages.

Good cross-country ability and low price are, perhaps, all the advantages. Otherwise, it’s a standard Soviet truck, made without basic comfort, so that life doesn’t seem like a fairy tale.

Old cars

They are attractive for farming because of their low initial price, maintainability, and cost-effectiveness. These are analogues to the domestic automobile industry.

Volkswagen Transporter T4

Volkswagen Transporter T4 is an old car today, but reliable and quite passable. In the long version, a trellis post fits into the cabin, which is undoubtedly convenient for the farmer; he can transport some small livestock. The car's ground clearance is 180 mm, it is front-wheel drive and passable.

With a 1.9 diesel engine, fuel consumption is from 6 liters on the highway. Compared to a “loaf”, the machine pays for itself many times over. But you need to look for a living copy, since restoring a Techik is not a cheap pleasure, these cars have a huge resource, but repairs are also very expensive.

Mercedes T1

These machines are still used every day, there is a channel on YouTube “AJIEIIIKA11”, a person drives long distances in such a truck. A very simple car, with a cast iron diesel engine and a frame, almost indestructible. Average consumption is 9-10 liters of diesel fuel. The engine is not demanding on the quality of diesel fuel.

The Mercedes T1 has a huge load capacity, the car has springs, and an incredibly large interior. There are cargo-passenger modifications, pickup trucks with a flatbed body, and so on. Again, if you restore even a destroyed T1, it will be more reliable and economical than the Gazelle and UAZ. The downside is that it is rear-wheel drive, often slips on muddy roads, and is slow-moving. You can also watch “Sprinters” before 2002.

Toyota 4Runner

For those who need an alternative to the Niva, that is, they need an SUV. The Toyota 4Runner is also available as a pickup truck. The second or third generation on diesel consumes 10-12 liters, on gasoline 12-14, if the engine is alive and adjusted. The car is roomy and very reliable, coming from a caring owner. Spare parts are inexpensive.

Again, if you find a live Toyota 4Runner, it will be more profitable than domestic cars, and less nerve-wracking. The load capacity is high, the cross-country ability is approximately at the level of a UAZ, with disproportionately lower costs for gasoline. You can also look at other old “Japanese” cars, especially those with economical diesel engines, the main thing is that the condition is good and spare parts are available.

UAZ-39094 “Farmer”

This is a universal cargo-passenger all-wheel drive SUV with a 4x4 wheel arrangement. It is equipped with a spacious 5-seater cabin and a compact but spacious cargo platform, so it is ideal for transporting people and for transporting all kinds of cargo weighing up to 1075 kg.

UAZ-390945 Farmer

We are used to the fact that the UAZ Patriot is regularly improved: the technical components are improved, the design is improved. All these innovations are heard and visible. And around the Ulyanovsk “old guys” - cabovers (more than 60 years on the market!) the information background is not so dense. Many people are not aware that these cars have also changed significantly in recent years: they have acquired power steering, front disc brakes, and a five-speed manual transmission. Passenger “loaves” are required to be equipped with ABS.

And at the beginning of this year, the cabover family was again modernized. To evaluate the updated UAZ-390945, I went to Ulyanovsk.

Evolution of a classic

While I was flying on the plane, I studied the changes made. The list, frankly speaking, is small.

“This is really not a radical modernization,” UAZ chief engineer Evgeniy Galkin anticipated my question. “Our cabovers are the most affordable all-wheel drive commercial vehicles on the market, and they are valued for that. Here are the sales data last year: everyone dipped except us! If the model is radically updated, the price will increase significantly - and we will lose our main competitive advantage. Therefore, we decided to improve the car point by point. The main complaint from buyers was the weak frame: cracks in it were not uncommon, especially in the places where the power steering and body supports were attached. We introduced additional reinforcement in these areas, increased the thickness of the cross member, and the complaints should come to naught. In addition, the frame and body are now separated not by an ephemeral gasket, but by a soft cushion that effectively absorbs vibrations - the easiest way to identify the 2016 “tadpole” is by it.

History of creation

Specifications

Engine

The UAZ Farmer 39094 special equipment is equipped with a productive power unit ZMZ4091, which is distinguished by the following technical characteristics:

weight excluding liquid – 190 kg;
type - in-line petrol;
cylinder – 4 pcs.;
functioning diagram of cylindrical elements – 1-3 and 4-2;
combustion chamber size – 2693 cm3.

Gasoline engine with a volume of 2.7 liters and a power of 128 hp.

The motor is controlled by a complex microprocessor. Partially due to this installation, an operating mode is maintained that allows you to save the fuel mixture even under high load. The crank assembly includes several main parts:

pistons;
cylindrical blocks;
rings;
cylinder head.

The design also contains a ring element responsible for thermoregulation. As for the engine lubrication device, in this case it is combined. Thanks to this system, oil is supplied to the working mechanisms by splashing.

The cooling device is used to remove heat; the device includes 6 elements:

water type pump;
emergency position controller;
antifreeze or antifreeze;
thermostat;
temperature controller;
radiator.

Volume of filling containers

For normal operation of the model, it is necessary to use fluids specified by the manufacturer. Refill containers and their volume:

Fuel tank – 50 liters (gasoline with octane number A92)
Additional fuel capacity – 30 liters;
Hydraulic brake system reservoir – 500 ml (brake fluid);
Clutch hydraulic tank – 180 ml (brake fluid);
Front and rear axle – 800 ml (gear oil);
Cooling system expansion tank – 2 liters (antifreeze, water);
Power unit crankcase - 5.8 liters (engine oil);
Windshield washer reservoir – 2 liters (specialized liquid);
Gearbox housing – 1 liter (gear oil).

Transmission

Depending on the year of manufacture, the UAZ 39094 is equipped with a 4 or 5 speed gearbox. Gear shifting is mechanical, carried out by a lever located in the car cabin. Switching is only possible after the input shaft has stopped.

Torque from the power unit to the gearbox is transmitted through a dry-type single-plate clutch. The clutch basket is always in the engaged position. The clutch is released by pressing the pedal in the vehicle's cabin. The clutch release drive is hydraulic.

The UAZ 39094 model has a transfer case. It has low and high gears.

The transfer case is controlled by two levers located inside the car. One lever is needed to upshift or downshift, the second is used to disconnect and connect the front axle of the car.

Torque from the gearbox is transmitted to the vehicle's drive axles through cardan shafts. The car has all-wheel drive. The axles are equipped with a cross-axle differential. The axles are equipped with planetary type gearboxes. The torque from the gearbox to the wheel mechanism is carried out using axle shafts. The front axle of the car is equipped with a wheel turning mechanism. This is necessary to control the machine.

Modern UAZ 39094 models have a wheel differential lock on the rear axle. This makes it possible to move through difficult areas of rough terrain.

Brake system

The manufacturer installs a hydraulic braking system on the UAZ farmer. It is activated by a pedal located in the cabin. To reduce the effort exerted by the driver when operating the pedal, a vacuum booster is included in the brake system.

The amplifier is connected to the intake manifold of the power unit. Under the influence of vacuum, the amplifier membrane acts on the rod of the main working cylinder.

The first versions of the UAZ Farmer are equipped with drum brakes on the front and rear axles. Newer models have disc brakes on the front axle. The brakes are equipped with an ABS system. This allows for effective braking on poor road surfaces.

The brake system consists of:

Brake master cylinder;
Working cylinders;
Calipers;
Vacuum booster;
Brake force regulator;
Wheel brakes;
Hoses and pipelines.

Platform

Compared to the base UAZ-3303 truck, the Farmer’s platform is located 10 cm lower, which significantly simplifies loading and unloading operations.

The overall dimensions of the cargo compartment are as follows:

length – 2040 mm;
width – 1870 mm;
side height – 400 mm;
height with awning – 1400 mm.

Electrical equipment

The electrical equipment system of the UAZ 39094 car is made according to a single-wire circuit. The negative contact is the car body. Consumers are powered by a 12-volt battery. It is necessary to start the power unit.

After starting, the consumers are powered and the battery is charged using a DC generator. It is belt driven by a pulley mounted on the crankshaft. To protect against fire due to a short circuit, a fuse box is included in the electrical circuit.

Electrical equipment consists of several systems:

Launch. Necessary to start the power unit using an electric starter;
Ignition. Needed for normal operation of the internal combustion engine;
Light signaling. Used for safe vehicle use on public roads;
Sound alarm. Used to produce a sound signal;
Cleaning the windshield. Serves to clean the windshield from dirt;
Heating.

The car is equipped with various sensors and devices. They allow the driver to control the operation of systems and mechanisms while driving.

Chassis and suspension

From the technical characteristics, it should be noted that the main advantage of the UAZ 39094 is its increased cross-country ability. This is ensured not only by the design features of the wheelbase, but also by the power rating of the power unit, all-wheel drive, and two-speed transfer case. Due to the last element, the driver has the opportunity to independently disable the rear drive.

UAZ Farmer performs well on hilly roads or off-road. The front and rear parts have a dependent suspension, the design of which includes semi-elliptical springs, as well as twin shock absorbers. Drum units can be replaced with disk units.

As for driving the car, some difficulties may arise due to the large size of the wheels and deep tire tread.

All UAZ vehicles do not have (for unknown reasons) a center differential; accordingly, engaging all-wheel drive without a lock installed on it is impossible. If the loaf hits the mud on the right side, the left wheels will remain stationary and the right wheels will knead the mud to no avail.

The remaining information must be read from the electronic display. The only dial gauge left is the speedometer. The remaining information must be read from the electronic display.

Out of habit, I poked the key into the front panel and almost scratched it: the ignition switch was not in its old place - it had moved to the steering column. A second, and the engine comes to life, filling the interior with a light velvety hum. It really became quieter!

— According to our measurements, the level of internal noise has decreased by 5–10 decibels, depending on the driving mode. By 2016, we adapted the engine to Euro-5 econorms. In preparation for the new standards, the engine control program had to be rewritten, after which it began to work more balanced, and most importantly, fuel consumption was reduced. You save about one and a half liters of gasoline for every hundred kilometers. Not bad, right?

Not bad, Comrade Chief Engineer, not bad.

Overcoming obstacles on the UAZ-39094

The disadvantages of the rear seats include their rigidity and the inability to install a child seat.

The situation is better with the front seats. They are equipped with headrests and have the function of adjusting the distance to the steering wheel and the position of the backrest.

UAZ tuning

The popularity and versatility of the “Farmer” make it a frequent target for tuning – professional technical modifications and changes to the factory equipment of the car. Fans of active recreation most often resort to tuning. Let's review the main tuning strategies.

To participate in trophy raids – off-road competitions – the following manipulations are carried out:

the suspension is lifted;
put on larger tires;
“civilian” bridges are replaced by “military” ones;
reinforced bumpers with winches are installed.

If it is intended to use the UAZ as a technical assistance vehicle, they work not only to improve cross-country ability, but also to increase the carrying capacity. An expeditionary roof rack with headlights is installed on the roof. The body is lengthened and converted into a radio station. To increase the covered distance, you can use an additional fuel tank.

Tuning a car for hunting, fishing, or traveling usually does not require such drastic changes. Owners limit themselves to slightly increasing the ground clearance and replacing tires. Only economical, easy-to-clean materials are used in the interior. Cabin styling in camouflage colors has become fashionable. Some convert the trunk of an UAZ into a room suitable for temporary living and eating.

Car body

The manufacturer installed a metal body on the UAZ 39094. The rear and side sides of the body open. This allows loading and unloading from any side. The platform floor is metal with wood covering. Additionally, an awning can be installed on the body. For this purpose, a removable pipe frame is provided. This design allows you to protect the cargo from the influence of precipitation.

The awning is tied to the body using laces. For this purpose, special hooks are installed on the sides of the body.
