Comparing a NEW DPF to Reconditioned Filters

When it comes to purchasing a diesel particulate filter, we know you not only have options but questions as well.

Questions ranging all over the board, like...

Let us help you Keep it Simple

Life tends to be complicated; sometimes people just want to make it that way! In business (and in life) we should remember the acronym KISS - meaning, keep it simple stupid. Not a very nice catch phrase, of course, and somewhat of an in your face statement. However, simplifying and reducing the maintenance of your heavy duty truck cooling system is one of the areas where taking the more straight forward approach can payoff in both money and time.

Ring in the New Year with Heavy Duty Truck Parts

So another year has come to a close. Were you one of the millions of people out fighting the crowds during the holiday shopping season standing in long lines, circling the parking lots for a place to put your car, or fighting another shopper for the last item on the shelf that you had in mind to purchase?

Silver and Gold Heavy Duty Radiators

Okay, so they’re actually made of brass, copper, steel, and/or aluminum, but that doesn’t mean that some of you don’t have a shiny, new, high quality radiator or charge air cooler on your Christmas list for Santa! Let’s face it, the Holiday Season is normally such a busy time of year that heavy duty truck maintenance slowly moves to the bottom of our long list of things to do. You may not be the person in charge of the cookie baking or decking the halls, yet the holidays have a way of sidetracking us more than any other time of the year.

Farming is a time honored tradition and way of life that is usually handed down from generation to generation. As a matter of fact, family farms make up 98% of all farms in the United States according to the US Department of Agriculture. Being raised knowing the long days and hardships that farming can bring requires a person with great stamina and character. Surely farmers know that it could be much easier to take a job and punch a clock for someone else rather than be subject to Mothers Nature’s whims and seven day work weeks, yet they do it every day. 

Having a High Quality Turbo Charger is Essential

The reliability of the turbo charger has come a long way, even as recently as the last ten years. One regional driver of over 20 years shared a story of a day, about that long ago, that his turbo blew while running down the highway in his company Volvo truck. With an instant 50% power loss and seeing the black smoke covering all three lanes of traffic, he was forced to limp the truck forward to the next off-ramp due to road construction eliminating the emergency lane. It was only about 15 minutes from the time of the blow until he was safely pulled over, but knowing that the smoke was creating a visibility hazard for the vehicles behind him – this seemed an eternity.

Quality is in the Eye of the Driver

When you hear the word aftermarket, your thoughts may be leaning toward believing it to be an inferior part. Although there are plenty of inferior parts to go around (some good, some not so much), you should be weary to keep from being bitten by them. Inferior is a relative term when talking about heavy duty truck parts.

Black Friday Savings on Select Semi Truck Parts

Traditionally Thanksgiving is a time for family, remembering and laughing at stories from the past, the big game on with everyone cheering, and snoozing on the couch after a wonderful and very filling dinner. During your travels to meet with family or when you find yourself running out for those last minute items to complete your table you may just happen to pass alongside a Kenworth, Peterbilt or even a Freightliner semi truck. When you do, why not send a wave in greeting to the hardworking driver sitting behind the wheel?
