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.
