Differential Equation
Stock axleshafts might be adequate for stock-horsepower trucks. But if you’re running boosted power (or running big tires, low gears, etc.), you might want to consider upgrading to something from the complete line at Sierra Gear & Axle. Built from 4340 chromoly steel, the Sierra Gear & Axle chromoly shafts are hardened and tempered to maximize their strength and ductility. The result is a heavy-duty axleshaft that’s up to 40 percent stronger than typical stock axleshafts.

Bright Idea
PPE makes the transition from halogen to HID easy with its new HID headlight kit. Producing up to 3,200 lumens, PPE’s HID headlight kit makes your truck’s headlights three times brighter than the stock halogens—while lasting up to 4,000 hours (or 10 times longer) than a standard halogen light. Onboard CPUs closely monitor the constant-current AC ballasts and HID lights during operation, ensuring everything is working optimally. But all that modern technology doesn’t mean installing the PPE HIDs is complicated; it only takes 15 minutes, and no wires need to be spliced or cut.

Pump it Up
The factory Dodge CP3 pump is only capable of producing about 600 hp while maintaining desired pressure and reliability. ATS’ Twin CP3 fuel system adds a secondary injection pump, along with other hardware, to maintain needed fuel volume. A number of features and recent refinements set the ATS Twin CP3 system apart from the competition. The updated twin CP3 kit for the Dodge Cummins features a new mounting bracket and idler pulley, which will fit older versions of the kit (using the sheetmetal pump bracket). The new idler increases belt tension and contact area with the billet CP3 pulley, giving better performance and eliminating any squeal during shut down.
