Slide Systems' trick setup uses two low-profile rails that mount to the top of a truck bed, allowing the user to add a score of different accessories. The system also works with the Rollerbox series of storage boxes.

As Old Man Winter assails the finish on your truck or SUV, don't forget to keep your wheels clean. Most wheels have a clear coat that's vulnerable to salt and brake dust. Eagle One has released A2Z All Wheel Cleaner. Spray it on, use an old paintbrush to break down the surface tension, then rinse. The results are awesome.

Most off-roaders know the differential is an oft-ignored driveline component that's expected to work trouble free forever. Reality paints a different picture, however. PML Inc. has released a line of finned diff covers to fit on Dana 80 and GM Allison differentials. They increase the fluid capacity of the differential, meaning it will run cooler longer.

SUVs offer impressive off-road manners, but sleeping in one is less than ideal. Mount the Hannibal Safari Equipment Rooftop Tent on the lid, and you have a home away from home.
