Munsters – other models: the collective page for heavy commercial vehicles outside the named series, types KT 20 to MT 30-36, 23 to 40.4 tonnes kerb weight, six- to eight-cylinder, around 11.6 litres
This page gathers heavy commercial vehicles that the register lists under the name Munsters and does not assign to a named series – from the KT 20 and MT 20 types, through MT 25-28 and MT 30-36, to the MT 815 type. The number sequences after the KT and MT letter codes denote weight or axle-load levels of the respective chassis; the MT range, with suffixes from 20 to 36, covers a wide spectrum of payload classes. All the vehicles sit well above 7.5 tonnes, placing them in the field of heavy special and heavy-haulage lorries.

The register lists 11 versions with 23,076 to 40,400 kg kerb weight and 23,710 to 40,400 kg gross vehicle weight, from six- and eight-cylinder engines. Engine capacity stands at around 11.6 litres, widths range from 2,500 to 2,600 mm, lengths from 10,710 to 13,770 mm.
Vehicles in this weight and length class are typically used in heavy and special haulage, for instance to carry construction machinery, structural components, or as multi-axle carrier vehicles for crane and lifting bodies. The small gap between kerb weight and gross weight in several models points to permanently fitted, heavy bodies rather than variable payload.
For a used example, frame cracks at heavily loaded mounting points, the condition of the multi-axle steering, and the braking system and tyres deserve particular attention given the high gross weights. With these rarely built special vehicles, service records for the engine and gearbox matter greatly, as spare parts can usually only be sourced through the original bodybuilder or specialist heavy-haulage workshops.
