Go Green and Save Green
You can stop wasting money on oil changes and help keep the environment clean by servicing your own truck with the LiquiVac oil vacuum system. By removing oil through the dipstick tube, you won't have to worry about spills, and the oil is transferred straight into a jug that's ready for the recycling center. Just 20 pumps of the LiquiVac handle builds enough pressure to remove your old oil, and you'll never have to worry about losing a drain plug again.

MPG Ringer
Instantly improve the fuel economy in your Dodge or Duramax by installing a 3.42-ratio ring-and-pinion set from J.T.'s Parts and Accessories. By swapping out your 3.73 or 4.10 gears, you'll immediately see lower rpm and higher mileage. Any '01-and-later AAM 11.5-inch rear axle will accept this ring-and-pinion set. J.T.'s Parts and Accessories also has heavy-duty limited-slip and electric-locking differentials for AAM axles.

Plow Power
You can more than double the amps of the alternator under the hood of your Cummins truck-perfect for powering your snowplow and other HD accessories. This all-new (not refurbished) 200-amp alternator from PA Performance is designed to make 125 amps at idle and 185 amps at just 1,500 rpm so you have plenty of juice when the engine is lugging. The alternator drops into the factory location with no modifications and fits all '89-'02 Cummins 5.9L engines, and models for '03-'07 will soon be available.

Uplifting 6.4L
Be the first to put your new '08 Super Duty up in the air with a 4.5- or 6-inch lift from Revtek Industries. Both of the powdercoated systems include a 31/48-inch steel track bar, carrier-bearing and sway-bar drop brackets, brake-line drop brackets, a pitman-arm upgrade, front and rear shock absorbers, rear lift blocks, and an additional rear leaf spring for the 6-inch kit. Revtek says the suspension lifts are designed to be easy enough to install at home and will improve the ride quality of your stock 6.4L Ford.

Be Scene
Make your '07 Chevy HD stand out from the crowd with a set of Speed Grille inserts by Street Scene for the brand-new GMT900 trucks. The upgrades are made from 5052-grade aluminum and use a patented diamond hole pattern that's said to promote good airflow. The inserts are available in satin aluminum (shown), chrome, polished stainless steel, or black-chrome finishes. Speed Scene grilles come with all the mounting hardware for quick installation without the need for drilling or cutting on your new truck. Lower-valance inserts are also available for your new '07 Chevy HD and will soon be joined by new Street Scene bumper covers in chrome, satin, or black-chrome finishes.
