This new Emergency Brake kit from High Angle Driveline fits the Stak three-speed and Atlas II and 4SP transfer cases. These kits are a great way to secure a vehicle with swapped-in axles or even a nonworking OE emergency brake. It features a custom output flange designed to accept a 1350 CV-joint. Because this e-brake is cable-actuated and only locks the rear driveshaft, it can also be used as a rear cutting brake when doing a front dig. High Angle Driveline also builds e-brake kits for the NP205 for Chevy, Ford, and Dodge, the International Dana 300, as well as the NP241 with a slip-yoke eliminator.

Using Edelbrock's patent-pending Sound Deflection Technology, these high-flowing mufflers are the latest in exhaust equipment. The chambered design manipulates the sound waves while allowing the engine to breathe better. The benefit is a distinctive and throaty exhaust note that's not too loud. The SDT Muffler is completely free from any packing material, eliminating blowouts and deterioration of the sound over time due to wear and tear. Info: www.edelbrock.com.
The Defelice Offroad Innovations Hummer H3 winch mount is a one-piece bolt-on unit. This H3 winch mount is laser-cut and fabricated from 3/16-inch-thick plate steel, and provides you with a factory appearance. We like that it doesn't change the factory approach angle. The H3 winch mount comes pre-drilled with a standard 10x4.5-inch bolt pattern to install the winch of your choice (the winch must have a remote-mountable solenoid box such as Warn's M8000, M9000, and XD9000 winches). This kit comes complete with the mount, longer wire leads, and Grade 8 hardware. Info: 317/984-1777, www.defeliceinnovations.com.
New from Valley Industries is this double-pivot fifth-wheel hitch rated for 20,000 pounds. The fully-articulating, all-steel hitch features an automatic locking head and innovative wrap-around-jaw design to secure the kingpin firmly in place. A built-in head jaw lockout eliminates side-to-side motion during highway travel, and an optional glider is available to provide turning clearance for shortbed trucks. With three-position adjustable uprights, setting the ideal hitch height is a cinch (a great feature for lifted trucks). A special pop-out indicator signals a secure connection and the yoke remains concealed for a tidy, professional appearance. The hitch has black powdercoat finish and fits most Chevrolet/GMC, Dodge, and Ford mid- and fullsize pickups, as well as the '04-'05 Nissan Titan and '00-'05 Toyota Tundra.

Airaid has recently developed a new PowerAid for the Toyota Tundra 4.7L V-8. This 1-inch throttle-body spacer features PowerAid's unique, patented helix-bore design which creates a spinning action as air passes through the throttle-body spacer. This effect is said to contribute to better atomization of the air/fuel mixture in the combustion chamber. The end result is more part-throttle torque, improved midrange power, and overall combustion efficiency for better mpg. The new Toyota Tundra PowerAid is an easy bolt-on and comes complete with all mounting hardware and instructions. Info: 800/498-6951, www.airaid.com.
