Hello! Today we will talk about, in my opinion, quite an interesting light trailer called KMZ 8136. This model belongs to the category of classic caravans, if I may call them that.
Modern production has taken a big step forward. But this does not prevent the KMZ 8136 model from remaining relevant and in demand until now.
There is still an active sale of trailed vehicle... This is due to the high quality of factory products that were released in due time. You can buy such a light trailer sooner at secondary market... Although some still offer them in a new state. How much their statements are true is difficult to judge.
My task is to acquaint you with the features of the KMZ 8136, tell you about its technical characteristics. I will not forget to mention the manufacturer.
A little about the company
The KMZ plant or Kurganmashzavod first produced its own light trailer in 1984. Then it was a multifunctional model of a fairly compact size. The products quickly gained popularity due to the affordable cost and high quality of the product.
Manufacturers have provided literally every little thing. High quality wheel bearing, shock absorbers, durable suspension arm and other parts were used. In order to change the silent blocks or other components, the owners did not have any special problems. There was no need to turn to specialists for this.
Currently, their old trailers, including KMZ 8136, are actively exploited and are being converted to the needs of the owner. Someone has a spring instead of a link suspension, others put larger wheels, digest the side, etc. This is a convenient and simple trailer that allows you to adapt it to various tasks and functions.
If we talk about modern production, then in 2017 the Kurganmashzavod plant underwent significant changes. It began to be used for the production of military equipment.But because of this, the production of caravans was not discontinued. Production was moved to the city of Cheboksary, retaining a team of experienced specialists and engineers. We also managed to maintain the entire production cycle.
Now KMZ trailers are produced at a new site. Experts have modernized production base, which made it possible to improve the quality of products and reduce the cost of manufacturing equipment. Therefore, changes are not always for the worse.
If you do not remember or have forgotten, then we have a trailer and model ... We also provided a comparison of two popular solutions, determining the preferred caravan between models. ... I advise you to read. It will be interesting and useful for you.
Design features of KMZ 8136
If you look at the official passport of this car light trailer, you can learn a lot of interesting and useful things about the original design of the KMZ 8136.To begin with, I note that this is a trailer for passenger cars, focused on the transportation of various goods. I hasten to remind you of the features and benefits , which you can read at the link.
The plant provides for the installation of a whole list of assemblies and parts, including shock absorbers, bearings and silent blocks, identical to those used on domestic cars... So, you can put on a trailer a set of wheels from VAZ or Moskvich. The exception is the Moskvich model M 2141.
The suspension here is very high quality and durable. It is an independent design with compression coil springs and telescopic hydraulic shock absorbers. Also, stamped-welded levers are used that swing in the longitudinal plane and are hinged with silent blocks on the cross-beam of the trailer frame.
Now you can select and install it without any problems , making almost everything you want from domestic classics.
From the factory, complete with KMZ 8136 came:
- awning;
- set of extension boards;
- drawbar extension;
- fasteners;
- electrical kit for connection to on-board network car lighting fixtures, etc.
The package bundle was rich enough. Some components were offered for a surcharge, others were included in the base price. But the price remained at an affordable and adequate level, which largely explains such popularity.
I agree that in some modern KMZ 8136, which have gone through alteration and revision, it is difficult to recognize the outlines of a classic domestic trailer even from a photo. But nothing lasts forever, therefore it is required to improve and modernize the design. Even if initially KMZ 8136 has excellent quality.
Specifications
Reading the reviews, I found that many cannot find the frame number on their KMZ trailer. I am in a hurry to help. Usually this number is located in the area of the left side lamp. Look in that area.
It often happens that during the operation the room gets dirty, rubbed out or covered with new layers of paint. This is an obvious flaw on the part of the manufacturer, since the number was not duplicated on the 8136 models until 2000. It is located only in one place and is sometimes poorly visible due to the initially not very high-quality application.
If you figured it out, then it remains only to consider the main technical characteristics. Understanding the approximate dimensions and capabilities of the caravan, you can decide for yourself whether you need a similar option, or it is better to look among something more modern.
I will start from the passport data, considering the technical aspects of KMZ 8136. Let's start.
I suggest you draw your own conclusions. In general, this is a worthy light trailer, given its rich history and long presence on the market.
To buy such a model or not is a personal choice for everyone. Today, the assortment of light trailers is so huge that buying becomes a serious problem. If earlier difficulties caused a deficit, today the main problem lies in a wide choice.
Thank you all for your attention! Be sure to leave comments, ask questions, subscribe and invite your friends!
The KMZ trademark is one of the leading manufacturers of trailers for passenger cars in Russia. The first KMZ trailer for passenger car the mobile was released in 1984. Trailed equipment of Kurganmashzavod due to high quality and affordable price quickly gained its significant place in the market.
Kurganmashzavod trailers
All products of the Kurgan Machine-Building Plant are distinguished by functionality, reliability, efficiency, and ease of use. Over the years, the trailers of the KMZ plant have earned fans in Russia, who have confidently confirmed the suitability of these units.

Video about KMZ trailers
Kurganmashzavod OJSC has long been a leader in the Russian military-industrial complex. The official date of registration of the plant fell on the post-war years (1950). At that time, only caterpillar tractors were manufactured, but today its range includes many equipment, including the KMZ trailer. Wide range attachments allows to use in agriculture, when performing utility and construction work.
A little about the company
Despite the fact that the project to create the plant was signed back in 1939, its construction was delayed until 1947. Martial law contributed to this. But already three years later, the first branded product was released - a tracked tractor. The production of special equipment lasted until 1962, after which the company sent production forces to develop an artillery lineup and BMP combat vehicles.
The year 1992 was marked by the production association at OJSC Kurganmashzavod, as well as the establishment of export supplies. KMZ trailers and agricultural machinery on the official website appeared relatively recently. Now you can find the following products in the catalog:
- hinged buckets;
- rippers;
- spare parts for the KMZ trailer;
- harvesting equipment;
- drilling equipment;
- concrete mixers;
- power units;
- car trailers KMZ;
- transportation machines;
- mini tractor, etc.
The main production forces are concentrated in Chinese factories. Due to this, the company significantly reduced the cost of its own products. Thus, KMZ light trailers were able to seriously compete even with imported equipment.
Model range and prices
The modern market is overflowing with a variety of offers from different manufacturers, but the Kurgan trailer distinguished itself not only by its availability, but also positive feedback from buyers. Some of the best variations include the following models:
The hitch has a sturdy welded frame for durability and reliability. The entire structure is reinforced to eliminate the possibility of deformation from overload. Thanks to the independent suspension, this model is characterized by increased stability and is not subject to swaying, which is so often found in modern models.
8119 model 185 cm long, 160 cm wide, sides height 30 cm.Trailer load capacity is 500 kg
The wheel hub does not protrude beyond the dimensions, so the device is easy to operate even in confined spaces. The design has a folding drawbar, this allows you to store the hitch in an upright position. The upper part can be covered with an awning, which makes it possible to transport cargo in any weather.
The disadvantages of the model are that it has not been produced for a long time, so KMZ 8119 can only be found on the secondary market. Here, its price varies within 20,000 rubles, the cost is directly influenced by the year of manufacture, condition and safety of the original configuration.

Compact trailer KMZ 8136 is designed for transportation of small and light cargo weighing up to 390 kg.
The platform area of the model is 2.23 m, and the dimensions are equal to the following indicators:
- length - 1850 mm;
- width - 1204 mm;
- height without awning - 25 cm.
The equipped weight of KMZ does not exceed 160 kg, therefore the trailer is suitable for installation on any passenger car, even low-powered. Its price is 30,000 rubles. The features of the model include a monolithic bottom made of aluminum, an elongated drawbar with a body flip mechanism without the need to disconnect the trailer, galvanized, traction-type coupling system and tailgate.

The model is used to transport a variety of goods, while it is capable of being operated in combination with any car equipped with towing hitch... The design has a spring shock-absorbing suspension, and in the configuration there is an awning and a removable frame.
As an additional option of the KMZ 8284 trailer, there are 2-row or single-row sides with a height of up to 33.5 cm. The body of the trailing element is covered with galvanized steel, which, according to the manufacturer, excludes the likelihood of corrosion.
Price RUB 37,100
Thanks to the lever-spring suspension, the model almost completely imitates the trajectory of a car without cutting corners. In addition, silent blocks from a Zhiguli car are suitable for this variation. As for the disadvantages, the following factors were included in the list of disadvantages:
- at frequent use soon there will be a breakdown of the laminated plywood on the bottom;
- when transporting cargo in the rain, you can be sure that it will get wet due to the large gaps between the sides;
- after 3-4 years, the first rust will appear on the sides, and this is despite the galvanized coating.
In general, this is a completely successful model that will serve as a real assistant in any household. In addition, it can be used as a boat trailer due to its great length.

Due to the diversity additional options the user will be able to independently choose the option suitable for himself.
VIDEO: Review of the light trailer Krepysh 821303
It was like this, I bought a used trailer, not expensive with documents, but in a deplorable state.
The trailer, in principle, is not bad, but "tired", the former owner treated the suspension arms, digested
brackets for these levers in general, the geometry of the wheel travel was lost (bending of the levers).
the rear and front sides were killed (rotted), the drawbar was bent ...
1 I decided to start with the sides (front-back). Since the height of the standard sides is 25 cm (not enough for me), I made it 40 cm high (frame made of professional pipes with a sheet of 1.5 mm riveted from the inside)
2 It was necessary to align the longitudinal sides with the transverse., And at the same time to strengthen.
It was decided to reinforce it with a board, 15 cm wide, flush with the board.
Since in the lower (native side) there are 4 nests for planting additional sides, I don’t remember the diameter, screws with a diameter of 8 mm were screwed into the board, and they, in turn, attract the bushings
the required length, and so these plump bushings are included in seats standard
boards. As you can see in the photo, the board is attached to the board with strips of metal riveted to the iron board and set with screws to the board. The board received excellent rigidity and sufficient height.
By the way, a friend came with the same trailer, and so he had additional sides installed on his cart (on tacks), no comparison - like a jellied meat!
3 Straightened the drawbar and welded in a piece of a suitable profile and thickness so that the trailer could be broken at 90 degrees without affecting the vehicle (clearance from the headboard
to the car 20 cm.) I painted and traveled with him - I scoured the road, though I did not jump (shock absorbers
workers, and the springs are weak) I brought gravel, loaded less than standard sides, fell on
chippers, it was not far to go - I held out ... The load did not suit me and I decided ...
4 Replacing the suspension is what should help ... I disassembled the link suspension, cut off the washers welded to the levers (by means of which the hub is attached).
beam (from the photo you will understand - the axle of the wheels is above the axis of the beam), Then I bought 469-front springs,
ladders + nuts, earrings + bushings, the springs had to be softened (too rough), pay attention to the photo of the spring.
As a result, the alteration turned out: toe 3 mm., Camber 3 mm, body volume 0.9 m3,
carrying capacity - loaded flush along the sides (gravel, sand), 8-10 cm remained to the bumpers,
calculate yourself (material density per volume).
As for the reliability of the construct: a little over 50 tons on the trolley was transported and unloaded, the spring bushings were cheap - they cracked but did not burst (I bought polyurethane ones)
By the way, at the next unloading, lights from 66 were ordered to live for a long time (they stood in a standard place), so now they stand from Kamaz-transferred from the edge and bottom of the tailgate,
When unloading, the trailer is positioned vertically.
The cart follows the car as if on rails, the empty truth occasionally bounces, but not all at once,
but alternately ...
By the way, I came to the idea and installed discs on 16 "7J, tires 215 * 70 R16, on large rollers it rolls more fun., But this is not the limit - the set 235 * 70 R16 lies in the storeroom.
This association is one of many, until recently, completely closed enterprises. Only a small circle of specialists knew what kind of equipment was produced here and how important the plant was for the country's defense capability. Today, thanks to the removal of many information restrictions, Kurgan machine-building plant becomes more and more famous not only in Russia, but also abroad.
To a large extent, this is facilitated by the growing competitiveness of the company's products, their high technical level, excellent quality and reliability.
The plant is relatively young. The first samples of equipment, artillery tractors, left its assembly line in 1954. And 13 years later, the enterprise mastered the production of a completely new combat vehicle, which had no analogues in the world at that time. It was the well-known BMP-1 today. It was intended to significantly increase the mobility and protection of infantry operating on the battlefield with the support of tanks. Abroad, machines similar in terms of the assigned tasks appeared much later.
In parallel with the production of the BMP-1, the plant's specialists were working to improve it. The result of multiple modernization was the BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicle, created in 1980, which, in many respects, significantly surpasses its predecessor. It is equipped with a highly effective weapon system, has reliable armor protection and high dynamic qualities. Equipped automatic devices protection of the crew and the landing from OM P. By the combination of properties and characteristics, this machine is recognized as one of the best in the world among its kind. It has earned such a high appraisal from specialists, having passed a series of tough tests, and fully justified it during the hostilities in Afghanistan. There are four compartments in the BMP-2 body.
The engine-transmission, which occupies the nose of the vehicle, is equipped with a UTD-20 V-shaped diesel engine, six-cylinder, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, with air and electric start, with a power of 220 kW (300 hp); a five-speed mechanical synchronized transmission and two-stage onboard planetary swing mechanisms with band stopping brakes. In an effort to reduce the nomenclature of components and assemblies, as well as to simplify and lighten the design as much as possible, the developers used a compact block version of the power plant. The ejection-type cooling system does not require a fan and, accordingly, a complex drive to it. Since the vehicle is floating, the engine is equipped with an efficient automatic system protection against water ingress into cylinders. The main control drive (dry friction) of the friction clutch is hydraulic, with pneumatic control, the gear change is hydromechanical. Power point simple in design, easy to operate, learn and maintain.
The control compartment is located at the front of the machine on the left. Controls and gauges are located here in much the same way as in a car. This greatly facilitates and shortens the training phase of the driver. The armament of the machine does not require significant physical efforts; the instrument panel contains complete information about the state of the engine and its systems.
The middle part of the corps is occupied by the fighting compartment, where the commander and operator-gunner are located. An important advantage of the BMP-2 is a well-chosen armament complex that allows it to successfully fight against almost any ground targets, as well as helicopters and low-flying aircraft. The main weapon (a 30-mm 2A42 automatic cannon and a 7.62-mm PKT machine gun paired with it) is installed in a rotating turret and stabilized in two planes. An ATGM "Konkurs" launcher is mounted on the roof of the tower. The dual-feed cannon is capable of firing in three modes: single; at a low rate (200-300 rds / min); high rate (550 rds / min). The firing angles horizontally are 360 ° and vertically - from -5 to 75 °

The gunner monitors the battlefield and guides the stranger using a periscopic binocular combined sight (day and active-passive night). The commander has a periscopic day monocupar trailer that allows you to control fire on ground and air targets.
In the troop compartment, located in the rear of the vehicle, there are loopholes for firing standard small arms (machine guns and machine guns) without the shooters getting out of the vehicle. Large hatches in the roof of the troop compartment make it possible to quickly dismount the assault force, as well as launch hand-held anti-aircraft missiles. The power plant, transmission and chassis of the machine provide it with high dynamic characteristics and cross-country ability. BMP-2 overcomes water obstacles afloat without prior preparation. In this case, the movement is carried out due to the reactive force created by rotating tracks and special jet grids located in the stern. Long-term tests, as well as the experience of operating the BMP-2, showed that the vehicle is equally well adapted to a wide variety of road and dirt (sands, swamps, virgin snow, mountains) and climatic (desert heat and frosts of high latitudes) conditions.
The most attractive thing about the BMP-2 is that, having high performance, it is simple and unpretentious in operation, easy and accessible to learn, and most importantly - reliable.

Combat capabilities of BMP-2
This combination of qualities suggests that this vehicle is capable of performing a wide range of combat missions both as part of a subunit and autonomously.
The huge scientific, technological and production potential, concentrated at the plant, makes it possible to constantly improve the quality of products and expand its range. In modern conditions, when the issue of the conversion of military production is acute, the enterprise was able to quickly organize the production of mechanisms and machines necessary in the national economy.
One of them - the small-sized municipal construction machine MKSM-800 - is designed for loading, leveling and moving soil and cargo, excavating rocks, digging narrow trenches, drilling holes (depending on the set of attachments). Its base chassis is equipped with a quick-detachable device for installing mounted interchangeable implements: bucket, bucket with teeth, dozer blade, stacking forks, grapple forks, drilling rig, grader, road brush, backhoe (excavator). The 43 kW four-stroke three-cylinder diesel engine allows a speed of 12 km / h and provides a rated load capacity of 800 kg. The machine is highly maneuverable, easy to operate, and has good traction performance.
Another development of Kurgans is intended for motorists. This is the KMZ-8136 trailer. It compares favorably with many similar models. It can carry slate, sand, peat, sawdust, bee hives, long loads, boats, slabs and much more. The capabilities of the trailer have been significantly expanded due to the elimination of wheel arches from the body, the use of folding and extension boards, a also a hitch of adjustable length.
A good help for owners of garden plots is the KMZ-012 mini-tractor with a set of attachments developed by the company's specialists. It has excellent maneuverability and good traction performance, easy to operate. The presence of the front and rear power take-off shafts, as well as hinged and trailed devices, allows it to be aggregated with a cultivator, a console mower, an aggregate for harrowing the soil, a plow, a hiller. Mechanical transmission provides the ability to move at four speeds forward and two - reverse.
