Manufacturer’s Original Specifications:
The following data represents the general engineering standards for the 2012 Western Star 4800 and Multicat Slinger. As a used unit, condition is as is, where is and may require general maintenance.

-
Transmission: Often paired with an Eaton Fuller manual (10, 13, or 18-speed) or Allison Automatic.

Key Features & Considerations: AS REPORTED BY THE SELLER
-
Remote Control Efficiency: Includes a radio remote to control the aluminum box, allowing the operator to place material with precision from outside the cab.
-
Recent Rubber: The front tires were replaced in June 2025 and have seen very limited use since the truck was taken out of service in September.
-
Operational Maintenance: The seller has maintained a regular safety schedule and recently replaced belts to ensure the slinger mechanism remains functional.
-
Aluminum Advantage: The Multicat aluminum box is designed to reduce tare weight, maximizing the legal amount of aggregate you can haul per load.
Ideal for: Concrete contractors, landscape suppliers, and quarry operators. This unit is specifically engineered for precision backfilling of foundations, spreading topsoil, or placing drainage stone in hard-to-reach areas where a standard dump truck cannot tip.
The Western Star & Multicat Advantage: The Western Star 4800 is a legendary vocational chassis known for its “quiet cab” and rugged durability in harsh construction environments. When paired with a Bay-Lynx Multicat body—the industry standard for stone slingers—it creates a versatile tool that can replace a backhoe and crew, placing 20 tons of material in as little as 20 minutes.
