Scania PA 4X2 – the two-axle truck with low cab from the older ranges: P for the short day/distribution cab, 4X2 as the drive formula, six-cylinder of around 11 litres, tractor and flatbed versions

Scania, based in Södertälje, has built trucks since 1902 and for decades has marked the cab form of its ranges with the letter P for the low, short cab without sleeping comfort, typical for distribution, construction and regional transport, as opposed to taller long-haul cabs such as R. The PA 4X2 range in the register comprises two-axle chassis with twelve-metre haulers and tractor units, whose type code carries, besides the cab form, the gearbox and body variant in the model name, for instance as an AS, ZL or ZS version.

The register lists here 7 versions with a displacement of 11,000 cm³ from six-cylinders, unladen weights of 6,100 to 10,300 kg, a gross vehicle weight of 11,995 to 17,500 kg, lengths of 5,700 to 6,350 mm and widths of 2,500 to 2,550 mm.

The PA 4X2 was among the lighter two-axle chassis of the older Scania ranges, used in regional and distribution transport and for tractor duties with a trailer, before the PGRT generation replaced the programme from 2004.

On a used example from this model-year span, rust on the frame and cab mounts, the condition of clutch and manual gearbox, brakes and the trailer coupling on the tractor versions, and general parts availability for older assemblies all count; parts run through the Scania service network and the used-parts market.
