Chak 86/6.R, properly Rasool Abad, is a village situated in Sahiwal, in the Punjab of Pakistan. It is one of the largest populated villages in that province.

Chak was developed before 1900, during British rule. It has, over the years, become more urbanized. 86/6-R is famous for the largest "Wood Market" in Asia, which is known as Lakkar Mandi. It is also famous from well-known religious personality Syed Mureed Hussain, commonly known as "Baba Mast(بابا مست)".

In the early 1930s, the village was divided into four blocks, with some remaining land set aside for agriculture. Dr. Fazal Din Sehgal was once the prominent personality of Chak as owner of villages 86/6R and 87/6R. After the village was handed over to Maher Khar Din (Lumber-dar) in the 1930s by the British local government, Sehgal invited families to live there, and supported them as administrator. Sehgal's son, Mehar Amir U Din (Lumber-dar) took over in 1958, and further developed the area.

Chak has different subdivisions, including Main Village 86, Shad-man Town, Baba Must Colony, and Bashir Colony. The village was upgraded Union Council status during General Pervez Musharraf's regime, and Mehar Riaz Ul Haq was subsequently elected its first Nazim, along with Mazhar Javaid as Naib Nazim.
