6x4 Trucks for Sale (127)

There is always a good selection of used 6×4 double drive trucks advertised for sale by truck traders and directly from truck operators on these pages. A 6×4 truck provides more traction than its more common 6×2 sibling as it uses both rear axles to drive the truck – as opposed to only one on a 6×2. A drive axle will have 4 wheels & tyres fitted, whilst a non-drive axle will have just two. Many countries that import trucks from the UK prefer 6×4 trucks, as the roads that they operate on can sometimes involve difficult terrain . The truck dealers who export trucks are aware of this need and some are converting 6×2 tractor units to 6×4 double drive.

More 6x4 Trucks Info

The uses for a 6×4 truck typically falls into the following categories:

  • 6×4 tractor unit that has to spend some time off road
  • Heavy Haulage tractor unit with hub reduction
  • Construction/Waste/Refuse truck role in uneven terrain
