Reverse Bleeder
The Phoenix Systems Maxxpro is a one-person brake and clutch bleeding system that works in reverse. Simply inject the fluid at the lowest point in the brake or clutch system (a wheel caliper or cylinder) and squeeze the handle. As the fluid is forced into the hydraulic system, the air is forced up and out of the master cylinder reservoir. Even ABS systems take just minutes (and no scan tool is needed).

Waterless Coolant
Evans Cooling Systems has long touted the benefits of its waterless engine coolant, but the heavy-duty truck crowd is starting to pick up on the trend. The SAE Type II Fuel Consumption Test and findings from fleet fuel economy studies have shown fuel savings ranging from 3 to 8 percent. Results of the John Deere Cavitation Test using Evans Waterless HDTC were far superior to those from all water-based formulations.
