Korando similar to G wagon??

I can't speak for the Ssangyong other than knowing that it uses a Merc engine. But the main points of the G are.

built like a tank: the G is by and large hand built. The only production car which is more hand built is the Rolls. The metal on the G is about twice as thick as on most cars.

solid axles: these are superior in off-road conditions and provide maximum clearance over rough terrain

3 dif locks: the G is the only production vehicle to come with 3 diff locks. Some have rear, and even far fewer have read and mid. But none have 3. Again makes the G go places off-road than others can't.

approach/departure angle the G has an excellent approach/departure angle

But now just re-reading your post realising that this wasn't really what you were asking....

My understanding is that most Merc dealers can service the Ssangyong.

The Korando and the Musso definitely use Mercedes engines and gearboxes. Possibly axles as well. I don't think that it uses a G-Wagen transfer box (this is a Steyr-Puch designed part).

To be able to know what we are talking about we need you to let us know the part / serial numbers of:

engine
gearbox
transferbox
front axle
real axle

Once we know them, we can crosscheck these with those of the G-Wagen and can tell you whether your truck shares service parts with the G-Wagen.

In any event, you wouldn't want to have your truck serviced in a Mercedes garage. They are the most overpriced bunch oif ignorants that I have ever encountered in my whole life. You'd be better off taking your car to a non-factory Mercedes specialist. They are normally less expensive and much better.

Regards,

I had a ssangyong musso. the only similarity is the engine and auto gearbox. the axles are dana 40's (made in usa) . My musso was a 320 petrol. It flew. but the quality was very poor, in fact yeah a lot of similarites to new mercs????
