    What is it supposed to be?

    And the last 6 of my VIN are 2 different trucks.

    Double frame likely. Short gears, and bigger diffs, with full lockers.
     
    Bean Jr. and WREN Thank this.

    I get that it is a 1996 conventional cab W900 double frame with 14.6 liter engine.
    Zero cost search so it maybe worth what I paid.
     
    Intothesunset Thanks this.

    I can run mine 1XKAAR8X2SS673018 and it shows up like yours. But mine is single framed. And factory single axle.
     
    WREN Thanks this.

    I have never heard of them referred to that way so I was just curious.

    No, its a b model short hood. I used a free vin checker and it said the model was a contruction w900

    W900 B model. 42'' sleeper. 12000lb front axle. 404 rears on a 52'' spacing. 3.90 ratio. Interaxle lock only. 10sp trans. 5ek Cat at 455hp. Made 11/25/95 in Chillicothe. Delivered to Birmingham, AL.
    Not sure why it shows up as construction, not a particularly heavy spec. Could be intended use was vocational or just a bad VIN checker.
     
    spsauerland, WREN and Bean Jr. Thank this.
