Peterbilt showcases Model 567 Set Forward Front Axle at 2017 CONEXPO-CON/AGG show

Peterbilt is showcasing its Model 567 Set Forward Front Axle (SFFA) at this year’s CONEXPO-CON/AGG show at the Las Vegas Convention Center, March 7-11.

The Model 567 SFFA is engineered to optimize weight distribution, resulting in maximized payloads while meeting state and federal bridge laws. Ideal for mixer and other weight-conscious applications, the versatile Model 567 SFFA is well-suited for a variety of construction applications.

“The Model 567 SFFA is innovatively engineered to maximize customer payloads while meeting bridge laws,” said Robert Woodall, Peterbilt assistant general manager of sales and marketing. “Combined with the built-in reliability and durability of PACCAR engines, the Peterbilt vocational lineup continues to exceed customer expectations in applications that demand rugged performance.

“With CONEXPO-CON/AGG, industry professionals will have a terrific opportunity to experience our product line and customize a profit-oriented solution for their specific needs.”

The Model 567 SFFA, along with Peterbilt’s Model 567 Set Back Front Axle (SBFA), provides exceptional maneuverability and versatility as part of the Peterbilt vocational truck lineup. Like the SBFA version, the Model 567 SFFA is available in both 115" and 121" BBC lengths.

The Peterbilt booth is also showcasing the newly-enhanced PACCAR MX-11 Engine. The MX-11 is a lightweight, fuel-efficient 10.8L engine with up to 430hp and 1,650 ft/lbs of torque. Peterbilt vocational trucks are also available with the 8.9L PACCAR PX-9 engine for applications with lighter loads, and the MX-13 Engine for applications requiring higher horsepower and torque ratings.

“The PACCAR MX-11 Engine exemplifies Peterbilt’s dedication to the highest levels of quality and overall return,” said Woodall. “The combination of innovative weight-saving and fuel-saving technologies in the MX-11 provide bottom-line benefits to our vocational customers.”
