What's new in products for more efficient fleet operation.
Allows for natural expansion and
contraction of cooling tubes
The Bullet Proof Diesel BulletProof 6.6L
Duramax LML EGR Coolers feature patented
H-Core technology, which resists the common causes of EGR cooler failure. The EGR Coolers are engineered for 6.6L Duramax LML applications found
in 2011-2016 Chevy and GMC pickups. The H-Core
design allows for natural expansion and contraction of cooling tubes inside the EGR cooler, limiting
structural failure that can occur at the end of the
tubes. The H-Core construction also increases the
surface area of the coolant tubes within the EGR
coolers, making them more effective heat exchangers than other tubed designs, the company says.

Open-shoulder tread design
to maximize grip
The Goodyear Fuel Max RTD (Regional Traction
Drive) is ideal for a variety of regional applications.
The Fuel Max RTD includes a new, low rolling resistance tread compound to help improve fuel efficiency and miles to removal. This tire also features
a new open-shoulder tread design to maximize
grip, earning it a Three Peak Mountain Snowflake
traction rating. The evolving tread design helps
maintain exceptional traction while the tire wears,
helping fleets optimize their time on the road. It is
available in 19.5 " -22.5 " sizes at OE or at an authorized Goodyear commercial dealer.
Designed to save on time
The Dana Incorporated Spicer ReadyPack

vehicle driveshafts, coupling shafts, and interaxle
shafts. The kits are designed to save on time and
to offer convenience, streamlined ordering, and
savings on inventory and labor costs. Featuring

ReadyPack kits arrive with U-joints that are professionally installed in the yoke shaft for the slip
joint and in the tube yoke for the tight joint. Kits
featuring Spicer Life Series (SPL) U-joints come
pre-greased with production lube and sealed
with the multi-lip seal, while 10 Series U-joints
must be greased before use.
The RETRAC HighRise Folding Rear Entry Step,
No. 409924, is ideal for semi trailers, box trucks,
and flat decks. It provides safer, easier access
to the rear cargo area, featuring grated steel,
high-traction treads. It's easily installed with four
bolts and can be attached onto virtually any 4 "
bumper beam and has an auto-stowing design to
prevent the step from being damaged when backing up. The unit is constructed from high-strength
7-gauge steel and has a work load limit of 600 lbs.
Its ergonomic design reduces strain and promotes
worker health and wellness.
