Western Star 4700SB

With Western Star it’s all about getting serious. Seriously delivering workhorse trucks which deliver. As a result of the great following of customers, the Western Star 4700SB is now known as the King of Agitators, as in application not trouble-makers, but it’s appeal is far broader than that.

The 4700SB is a seriously sensible choice for tippers, service trucks, intra city, concrete, towing and recovery, municipal works and general delivery work.

With a strong and proud American heritage, the Western Star has that serious truck look, as if it is concentrating on the job at hand and that’s what you want from your fleet. Western Star trucks are designed and built to meet specific application requirements and to ease the burden of budget tightening and the 4700SB is another tough and reliable member of the range.

Driveability Fit for a King

From a manufacturer that was founded on belief that the driver is a business’ most valuable asset, it’s not surprising that the 4700SB excels in the driveability stakes. The design offers excellent visibility and manoeuvrability and the dashboard is strictly functional.

The 4700SB is powered with the reliable Cummins 8.9 L ISL engine which meets Euro 5 emission standards. Select from 260hp to 400hp to suit your task. The SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) system is a welcome inclusion to assist operators on the fuel efficiency front.

The choice of configurations are 6x4 and 8x4. The Eaton 18 speed manual transmission is standard with the Allison full automatic available as an option.

Safety is definitely a priority on the Western Star 4700SB with the inclusion of the WABCO braking system which mitigates risk by detecting when the truck is making a turn. It is claimed that this system assists in protecting the driver and protecting operator costs as well.

Reliability and Durability

The Western Star 4700SB has undergone rigorous testing under Australian road conditions to prove its rugged reliability and the 4784SB has Roll Stability Control.


Construction is highlighted with strength yet light weight with ½” thick single channel frame rails which are custom drilled to suit individual application requirements.

Durability is enhanced with the all-steel, corrosion resistant engineering. The cabs are built from galvannealed steel, not aluminium or rivets, as your assurance of extra strength and safety. For additional strength extra gussets and reinforcements have been bonded, precision welded and dipped with a 17 stage erosion protection process. A superior paint finish completes the process.
