Popular Post 41chevy Posted October 19, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2017 (edited) Chassis numbers (GVW Rating): 4xx - 6xx - 7xx - 8xx - Note: the xx is the place holder for the engine code. Examples R607 END673 R609 END711 R611 ENDT673C R612 ETAZ673 (300+) R615 END864 V8 R626 6v92 Detroit R685 ENDT675 (237 Maxidyne) R686 ENDT676 (300 Maxidyne) R688 E6350 R719 ENDT864 V6 R795 ENDT865 V8 R797 ENDT866 V8 R747 290 Cummins R763 335 Cummins R767 350 Cummins T - Tractor S - Six wheel chassis L - Light weight components RS7xxLS as our example: R = R model S = an S after the R indicates it has a steel frame. This was a western Hayward thing i believe. 7 = has to do with the chassis GW rating. 800/900 series were extra and super heavy duty chassis. XX = these two numbers are engine codes. L = Hayward models had this letter to denote the cab used light weight components like aluminum doors. S = six wheel tandem chassis. so essentially it is a 6x4 chassis. Another example RW613: The W stands for Western and together with the R means a superliner or RW. 13 is a Cummins NTC engine. If there is an SX after the number code like R600SX it means you have a heavy duty tandem X - Extreme duty Edited February 28, 2019 by 41chevy 3 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51420-r-model-vin-decoder/#findComment-382894 Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 This will give you some more info for the 17 digit VIN. The date codes will be newer than what you are working on. https://onlineuniversity.bloomfire.com/posts/969647-mack-trucks-vin-decoder 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

First digit 2 does not always mean glider.... First digit 2 is actually Canada. Goes for cars as well. Also the listing for digit 11 is missing the "C" for Canada (Oakville assembly" The Canadian Oakvile trucks were not knockdown kits. The steel frame rails came in from Hayes Dana in Beamsville Ont. Using Canadian steel. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51420-r-model-vin-decoder/#findComment-383135 Share on other sites More sharing options...

j hancock Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 14 hours ago, m16ty said: What would be the designation for a R model 6x6? Is it a factory built piece or aftermarket? I am familiar with, for example, RM6854 237 HP 4X4. The 4 indicates 4X4 with front drive axle and one rear drive axle. An RM6856 is a 237 HP 6X6. Last 6 for the 6X6. There were also some RD800 6X6 trucks with the model designations of RD8216, RD8226, RD8246, RD8886 and RD8906. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.
