Three-dimensional Style With 3dCarbon-AirDesign’s awesome new products for the ’14-and-up Chevrolet Silverado, improving your truck’s styling is a great first step to a custom build. Along with bumper overlays and door panels, the Super Bolt Fender Flares cut a technical profile with their matte-black finish. However, they’re paint-ready if you prefer a monochrome look. The flares are UV-protected to resist fading, and they’re easy to install. We love the exposed mounting hardware, too.

Bed, Bumper, and Beyond

Lock It Down!
For the ultimate in off-road toughness and reliability, check out the Warn Industries’ manual locking hubs for the ’05-and-up Ford Super Duty. Manual locking hubs are generally more reliable than auto-lockers, and they allow for better fuel economy as well. Warn’s hubs have an excellent reputation for toughness and durability, and they have a simple, cartridge-type design for easy installation and hub maintenance. They’re available in black powdercoat or chrome finishes for that just-right look.

Spring for an Upgrade
For the ultimate in lift and ride comfort, consider Kelderman’s lift kits for the ’14-and-up Ram 2500 with the coil-spring suspension.

Available in 5-to-6 or 8-to-10-inch lifts, the system eliminates rear axle squat when towing and makes space for tires up to 40 inches tall.

Cool Under Pressure
One of the coolest things about modern diesels is the massive amount of potential they have. Mishimoto can help owners of the ’08 to ’10 6.4L Power Stroke unlock some of that latent energy with its new diesel intercooler kit. Offered with either a black or silver core, the intercooler kit boasts extensive aluminum construction, tough DuraCore silicone boots, and high-flow piping. Mishimoto says the kit reduces pressure drop, improves airflow, and decreases air charge and exhaust gas temperature, resulting in a more efficient and powerful diesel.

Available in aluminized steel or T409 stainless steel, these turbo-back exhausts boast higher flow and a great sound for your 5.9L.

Gettin’ Hitched
Getting your tow vehicle aligned with your trailer can be difficult, especially if you don’t want the expense or hassle of installing a backup camera. DuraSafe has an economical solution with Coupler Connect, a device that guides the trailer coupling over the hitch. Not only does it remove some of the guesswork in getting connected, it also protects your truck from accidental damage when hitching. For added safety once you’re all set, check out Coupler Protect, which prevents the coupler from accidentally releasing from the hitch ball.

High Versatility, High Mileage
Buying a light-truck or a flotation tire used to mean foregoing a warranty and hoping your expensive rolling stock would last. Well, with the Nitto Terra Grappler G2, that’s a thing of the past. The G2 promises excellent all-terrain performance, and LT and flotation sizes come with a 50,000-mile treadwear warranty. The tire has some refinements over its predecessor that promote traction and even tire wear as well, and two different sidewall designs mean you get to customize your truck’s every detail.
