Truckin’ – November 2019

(やまだぃちぅ) #1

A Big Step


Who: Rolling Big Power
What: Stealth Power Running Boards
Why: The market for power-assisted running
boards just got a big boost from a well-known
name in the aftermarket industry. Rolling Big
Power is known for its various truck products,
but until now, it hasn’t offered an electric step
system. Owners of trucks, Jeeps, and SUVs,
can now add these to help get in or out of their
vehicle, especially on vehicles with big lift kits
installed. Stealth Power Running Boards are
machined with military-grade aluminum that
has been textured, ribbed, then powdercoated
black for ultimate durability and maximum
traction as well as easy cleaning.

Air On-the-Go


Who: Kleinn
What: Direct-Fit Onboard Air System With
Waterproof Air Compressor
Why: Truck owners use their pickups for a
variety of activities, whether it be work-related
or recreational. Kleinn now offers an Onboard
Air System to help all truck owners with their
compressed air needs. Its new system, which is
available for a wide variety of trucks, can be used
to inflate tires, power air tools, adjust air suspension,
and, of course, honk Kleinn Train Horns. The heavy-
duty, waterproof, 200-psi compressor comes with
a 3-gallon air tank, direct-fit brackets, and 160-psi
gauge with on/off rocker switch.

Bright and Shining


Who: Pro Comp at 4Wheel Parts
What: LED Lighting Systems
Why: As a longtime leader in off-road
suspension products, Pro Comp has recently
launched new LED lighting accessories,
including wide-angle cube lights, a spare tire
brake light, and phone app-controlled rock lights
to help enthusiasts see the elements better.
With the goal of designing and building superior
products in mind, Pro Comp is also focused on
making its LED lights more affordable than other
brands currently available to consumers.

Protect and Prevent


Who: Heatshield Products
What: Hot Rod Sleeve
Why: When it comes to the finishing touches
on a project, the easiest items to tuck away from
view can sometimes lead to disaster later on if you
haven’t routed them correctly. With the new Hot
Rod Sleeve from Heatshield Products, your truck’s
wiring and fluid lines can be protected from 1,
degrees Fahrenheit continuous heat exposure
and 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit intermittently. Heat
can destroy just about anything in your vehicle,
with even short-term exposure causing brake line
overheating, vapor lock on carbureted vehicles, and
electrical shorts in your wiring. The Hot Rod Sleeve
is available in 10-foot or 100-foot rolls and comes in
diameters ranging from ¼-inch to 1-inch.

Good Vibrations


Who: Chicago Pneumatic
What: CP7160 and CP7165 Low-Vibration Hammers
Why: If you’re tired of grinding and cutting to
remove hardware, or your old pneumatic hammer
is not performing to your expectations, Chicago
Pneumatic has a new low-vibration hammer aimed
to help everyone from the general mechanic to body
shop technicians. The CP7160 and CP7165 were
designed to provide great handling and are covered
by a rubber grip to prevent the hammer from slipping
out of the operator’s hands—even if they are dirty or
oily. The built-in vibration-damped valve creates the air
cushion and thus minimizes shock to the user.

Tuning With Ease


Who: SCT
What: GTX and X4 Performance Programmers
Why: Owners of late-model Ford trucks have
a couple of new options when it comes to fine-
tuning their truck’s overall performance. The SCT
GTX and X4 have received updates that will allow
custom and preloaded tuning programs to be
loaded for the ’18-to-’19 Ford F-150 3.5L EcoBoost
(Raptor and Non-Raptor), giving it an additional 149
hp and 139 lb-ft of torque. Along with the F-150, the
’17-to-’19 Ford F-2 50/F-350 Power Stroke 6.7L and
’17-to-’19 Ford F-450/ F-550 Power Stroke 6.7L can
now be tuned at the touch of a button.
