For the BAZ brand, many people have heard of it, but few introduce its history, today we will first understand it. In 1958, the Bryansk Automobile Plant was established on the basis of the Bezhzyky Steel Plant, mainly to solve the problem of insufficient capacity of zil models of the Stalin Automobile Plant. Its first product, the 140 hp T-140 diesel tractor, began assembling and producing the BTR-152 and ZIL-485 in 1959.

Development and production of the Osnova series chassis, an important milestone at the Bryansk Automotive Plant, began in 1971 with a 400 hp 8-cylinder UTD-25 engine. In 1989, it was jointly developed with the famous British minibus company IAD, and was preparing to launch a domestic minibus model. The previously introduced BAZ-69501 was introduced in 1985, and these big guys with two engines are also known as "twin-engine behemoths".

Today's protagonist is the chassis of the BAZ KSh-8973 heavy-duty crane, which was launched by the Bryansk Automobile Plant in 2004 and has a maximum lifting capacity of 100 tons after being equipped with the KS-8973 Ivanowitz hydraulic crane. The suspended cab is a tradition of the plant's heavy-duty vehicles and is largely identical to the layout of the REM-KS armored repair vehicle.

The lower cab features a single windshield and three downside wipers. There are two pedal armrests under the wiper, a circular logo in the middle of the front, and two short lateral air intakes below the logo. The bumper protruding from the cab is equipped with a special steel frame for fixing the lifting hook hanging from the front of the car, and the bumper is equipped with two rectangular headlights on each side, one large and one small.

The chassis on both sides of the cab is the same width as the body, but wider than the cab, and the cutouts on the sides form a two-stage board with the platform. Due to the width of the problem, both side mirrors use large swing U-arms, there is a straight elevator to the body on the right side of the cab, and safety warning lights are on both sides of the rear of the roof.

The car features the cab of the T815-2 TerrNo1, which also features the Tatransr's logo in the center of the two-spoke steering wheel. The doors are assisted by mounting armrests on both sides and feature a 1+1 seat layout. The flat-floor cab should have been very spacious, but interference from the wrap-around center console and lifting control equipment made the space appear small. The dashboards in front of the large, medium, and small are prominent, but the double-row indicators above the original Tai Tuo pull dashboard are gone, and the right functional area is relatively simple.

The vehicle drive axles are 1, 2, 4 and 5 axles, but usually the 1-axis drive module is disconnected and will only be opened under special circumstances. In addition, the 4th and 5th axles can also be turned on the steering function, and the 3-axis can be lifted so that the vehicle can be moved in a "crab" style in a very small space, which is convenient for movement.
