The car GA3-66 is a two-axle truck with a carrying capacity of 2 tons, off-road, with a drive on both axles. It is designed to replace the GAZ-63 car of the same type produced by the plant
GAZ-66 has modifications:
GAZ-66-01 - a car with a tire pressure control system;
GAZ-66-02 - a car with a winch and a tire pressure control system;
GAZ-66-04 - a car with a tire pressure control system and shielded electrical equipment;
GAZ-66-05 - a car with a winch, a tire pressure control system and shielded electrical equipment.
When creating the GAZ-66 car, special attention was paid to obtaining high cross-country ability and driving stability.
To obtain a rational distribution of the load along the axles on a GAZ-66 car, the cab is located above the engine.
The GAZ-53A car with a carrying capacity of 4 tons with a rear axle drive is designed to transport various goods on all types of roads. The main components of the cars are interchangeable.
