 On the Spot Repairs

Koul Tools is proud to introduce the latest addition to its line of hardline sealing tools, the Fitting Fixer. The Fitting Fixer uses an inverted cone with diamond-dust-coated lapping material to repair the conical sealing surface on 37-degree fittings. But what if the fitting is a weld-in bung? What a headache. In the past, you’d have to replace the fitting and maybe even the tank; now with the Fitting Fixer you can repair it. The ability to fix a leaky fitting on the spot is invaluable, making the Fitting Fixer a great asset for any professional or hobbyist who works with hardline connections. The tool repairs 3/16 to 1-inch fittings.

AC for Your LS

The modern Chevrolet small block V8 engine, most commonly known as the LS series, has been a staple within the GM lineup for more than two decades. Thanks to the engine’s ease of modification and ability to be stuffed into just about any vehicle ever made, it has become one of the most popular engine platforms among performance enthusiasts. In response to the increasing demand for a LS accessory belt system with “extra clearance” to accommodate aftermarket intake manifolds and large-bore throttle bodies, Vintage Air has designed and introduced its new Low Profile Front Runner system.

These new low-profile kits are machined from the same high strength 6061-T6 billet aluminum used on all Vintage Air Front Runner kits. The kit features a redesigned, main truss bracket that provides the additional space required to run an aftermarket intake manifold and larger throttle body. The system also includes a new Edelbrock water pump with replaceable impeller cartridge and threaded heater hose outlets.

Sporty Suspension for Your Chevy Sport Truck

RideTech recently announced the addition of 1988-1998 C1500 pickups to its StreetGRIP line of affordable suspension systems. Twenty years ago, the 1988 Chevy C1500 launched the Sport Truck craze. Tens of thousands of enthusiasts lowered and dressed up their trucks. We all had fun, but the lowering technology of the time often sacrificed ride quality and load capacity in the name of appearance. Since then, the custom truck community has learned how to add real performance suspension to older 63-87 C10s and even older 3100 series trucks.  Times have changed and so have expectations. Now the technology comes full circle.

The new RideTech StreetGRIP suspension system features a heavy-duty C-Notch design that is significantly longer and stronger than other C-Notches to add axle clearance without sacrificing load capacity. Beyond the sturdy foundation, the system features custom-valved monotube shock absorbers. These premium quality shocks offer adjustable rebound and forged bodies. The shocks are so good that they carry a 1,000,001-mile warranty. RideTech provides custom matched coil springs and forged dropped spindles to get the front of your truck low. Powder-coated, heavy duty shock relocating brackets maintain an effective angle. Grade 8 hardware finishes off the complete, bolt-on system.

A Step Above the Old Model

AMP Research has added a new model to its lineup of PowerStep electric deployable running boards. The PowerStep XL features an additional 3 inches of drop compared to standard PowerStep boards, which makes them ideal for lifted vehicles. This 3-inch drop comes courtesy of an integrated aluminum rail that not only looks great, but also offers additional durability when the steps are retracted. The PowerStep XL also features easy installation with hassle-free plug-and-play wiring. Simply attach the boards and plug the wiring harness into the vehicle’s OBDII port. Like other PowerStep models, the PowerStep XL features an integrated LED light system for excellent low-light visibility.

The rails are constructed of sturdy 6063 marine-grade aluminum and wear an attractive, corrosion-resistant black textured coating. For extra strength, the board’s components are made from die-cast aluminum alloy with an anodized PTFE-coated (polytetrafluoroethylene) military-spec finish for excellent corrosion resistance. Precision stainless steel pivot pins ensure rock-solid stability with a 600-pound capacity; maintenance-free, self-lubricating bushings ensure years of all-weather performance.
