Technical characteristics of cars GAZ-66, GAZ-53

The GA3-66 vehicle is a two-axle truck, with a payload capacity of 2 tons, all-terrain, with drive on both axles. It is designed to replace the same type of GAZ-63 car produced by the plant

The GAZ-66 car has modifications:

GAZ-66-01 - a car with a tire pressure regulation system;
GAZ-66-02 - a car with a winch and a tire pressure regulation system;
GAZ-66-04 - a car with a tire pressure regulation system and shielded electrical equipment;
GAZ-66-05 is a car with a winch, a tire pressure regulation 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 load distribution along the axles on the GAZ-66 car, the cabin is located above the engine.

The GAZ-53A car with a load capacity of 4 tons and rear axle drive is designed for transporting various cargoes on all types of roads. The main components of cars are interchangeable.
