Scania RM – heavy chassis in 4x2 and 6x2 configuration, six- and eight-cylinder diesel engines from 8.5 to 14.2 litres, gross vehicle weight from 12 to 26.4 tonnes
The RM range groups heavy Scania truck chassis in 4x2 and 6x2 configuration, recorded in the register under designations from RM 4X2 to RM 6X2 ZS 65160; letter-and-digit suffixes such as AL, AS and ZL denote different axle and body variants. The vehicles on this collective page cover both lighter six-cylinder and heavier eight-cylinder engines and were used as tractor units and as flatbed and tipper chassis for long-haul and construction traffic.

The register lists 19 versions with six- and eight-cylinder engines from 8,475 to 14,190 cm³, kerb weights from 6,320 to 15,840 kg, gross vehicle weights from 11,999 to 26,400 kg, lengths from 5,850 to 11,550 mm and widths from 2,480 to 2,600 mm.
As heavy chassis, RM models served classic long-haul work as well as construction and municipal use, with bodies ranging from a plain flatbed through tippers to crane vehicles. The engine span from 8.5 to 14.2 litres shows that both medium-heavy distribution versions and heavy long-haul versions ran under the shared range designation.
Buying one of these older Scania trucks used, what matters is frame corrosion, the condition of the clutch and manual gearbox with its splitter or range group, and the condition of the braking system, fitted with drum or disc brakes depending on the model year. Engine condition, compression and oil consumption on the six- and eight-cylinder versions and the condition of the rear axle should also be checked; wear parts are well supplied through the Scania parts network.
