Howo A7 6X4 Second Hand Truck Head Used Tractor Trucks

A 6x4 HOWO A7 tractor head built around the MC11 or MC13 turbocharged six-cylinder diesel engine, rated between 351 and 450HP and paired with the ZF9S1820 ten-speed manual transmission.

Key Benefits

What This Unit Does Well

  • MC11 and MC13 engines are the most widely stocked in the HOWO A7 range, ensuring filters, injectors and oil are available locally
  • ZF9S1820 transmission offers precise gear ratios for both loaded climbs and empty return runs
  • 3200mm wheelbase maintains manoeuvrability on unpaved yards and tight port access roads
  • 400-litre fuel tank supports long stages between reliable fuelling points
  • Curb weight of 8800kg leaves useful payload margin within a 20-41T GVW rating
  • Air-conditioned C7H cab is standard for multi-day hauls with two-driver rotation
Application Scenarios

Where It Is Used

  • Container haulage between inland depots and coastal ports on mixed asphalt and gravel roads
  • Flatbed transport of construction materials to sites with no paved approach roads
  • Bulk material hauling with tipping semi-trailers on quarry and mining routes
  • Long-distance general cargo where fuel stops are more than 400km apart
Fit

Who It Is For

  • Fleet owners replacing ageing prime movers and standardising on one engine family

  • Machinery dealers stocking tractor heads for resale in African and Central Asian markets
  • Logistics operators running container chassis and needing predictable maintenance cost
Buyer Pain

Problems It Solves

  • Mixed fleets where every truck requires different filter, injector and clutch part numbers
  • Downtime caused by parts that take weeks to arrive from Europe
  • Tractor heads that are underpowered for loaded gradients and burn fuel compensating
  • Uncertainty over exact chassis and axle codes when quoting an import licence
Engineering

Technical Features

Process

How an Order Is Handled

  • We match a chassis code and axle ratio against what is available in stock or from the plant
  • You confirm the final specification sheet including colour, cab and tyre before deposit
  • Unit is prepared, photographed and video recorded before loading
  • We book RoRo or container shipment and issue the export documents your customs needs
Quality Control

Checks Before Loading

  • Chassis, engine and gearbox numbers are photographed and matched to the specification sheet you approved
  • Engine start, gear engagement and air system are recorded on video before loading
  • Paint, glass and cab trim are checked for transport damage at the loading port
  • Loading and lashing photos are sent before the vessel departs
Customisation

What Can Be Changed

  • Sleeper layout, single or double bunk
  • Left hand or right hand drive as your registration requires
  • Tyre brand and spare wheel count
  • Additional fuel tank, tool box or fifth wheel height change
Honest Comparison

How It Compares With the Alternatives

4x2 tractor headThe 6x4 carries far more on the drive axles for loaded gradients but costs more fuel when running empty on good roads
Higher horsepower 450HP HOWO A7351-450HP is cheaper to buy and to service, but a 450HP unit holds speed better on sustained climbs
EURO 5 emission tractor unitsEURO 2 avoids AdBlue supply and sensor faults in markets without reliable urea, but cannot be registered where EURO 5 is mandatory
Use Guide

Using It Well

  • Replace fuel and oil filters on the interval set for MC11/MC13 engines, not on a generic schedule
  • Keep the air dryer cartridge stocked, humid coastal routes shorten its life
  • Order the clutch plate and injector set with the truck so the first service does not wait on shipping

Buyer Questions

Questions About This Unit

Is this unit new or used

It is new. The condition is listed as new in the product data, and all units are built to current factory specification.

What is the lead time

Units already in stock can be prepared and loaded quickly. A build to your specification depends on the plant schedule at the time of order, so we confirm a date in writing with the proforma invoice.

Can you supply spare parts for this truck later

Yes. MC11 and MC13 filters, injectors, clutch parts and axle components are the parts we ship most often, and they can be consolidated with the truck order.

Do you ship by container or RoRo

Tractor heads normally go RoRo. Container shipment is possible with the cab lowered on some routes. We quote both so you can compare landed cost.

What documents do I get for customs

Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin as standard, plus any pre-shipment inspection certificate your country requires.
