Used HOWO 6x4 Dump Truck 400hp with Lamp Guards

This used HOWO 6x4 dump truck carries a 400 hp rating on the grille instead of the 371 hp badge most export HOWO tippers wear. That difference shows up on the haul road: the extra 29 hp keeps the gearbox out of its bottom range when the body is full, which is where clutch wear and fuel burn actually come from.

The truck is a three-axle 6x4 with a rear-tipping body and a ten-speed manual transmission. What the photos show first is the export specification — a steel guard across both headlamps, a roof warning beacon, and a side-mounted spare carrier. Lamp guards are fitted because the first casualty on a rough site is a headlamp, and sourcing a replacement through Suame Magazine often costs more than the part itself.

Where this unit fits

For construction spoil, quarry stone and road sub-base, a 6x4 tipper is the sensible compromise between payload and axle loading. Operators who need more volume for sand and gravel usually move up to the HOWO NX 8x4 dump truck, while fleets that stay on tarmac and pull trailers are better served by a HOWO T7H 6x4 tractor. If you are still weighing the two body types, the standard HOWO 6x4 tipper page sets out the baseline configuration this truck improves on.

Plan the landed cost, not the FOB price

The Ghana landed cost guide walks through Tema duties and levies line by line, and the 2026 import rules explain the EASYPASS conformity certificate now required for used trucks entering Ghana. If you are still choosing a port, Tema against Lome sets out where each route lands cheaper.

Every unit is inspected and photographed before loading. Ask for the walkaround video and the tyre tread readings for this specific truck — the images on this page are of the actual unit in our yard, not a stock photo.
