Maybe you have a company and want to know how to get your stuff in New Products. If you have a new truck- or 4x4-related product you'd like us to help you debut, e-mail an image and some text about the product to jerrod.jones@primedia.com. Please have all images be no less than 1600 x 1200 pixels (or two megapixels) and be saved as a TIFF, an EPS, or a maximum-quality JPEG file so our art director doesn't shoot us. We can't use images off of any Word Documents or Adobe Acrobat files, so be sure to include a separate image in the proper format, or it won't be run. Thanks again. We love seeing all the new stuff you guys come up with!

Lanky-Armed Dodge
BDS has a new long-arm kit for your '03-'05 Dodge 2500 or 3500 diesel truck. The 6-inch lift puts your Dodge on new Pro-Ride coils and heavy-duty control arms (the lower ones being an extended length for less caster change throughout suspension cycling). The kit comes with everything you need to get your ride higher in the air, and of course is backed by BDS's No Fine Print Warranty. Information: BDS, 517.279.2135, www.bds-suspension.com
Zylstra Toolbox Tank
Zylstra (no, we don't know how to pronounce that one either) Performance Products has just come out with a new toolbox fuel tank combo for the back of your pickup's bed. The boxes are constructed of 0.125 marine grade aluminum, are heli-arc welded, and have stainless steel hinges and locks that are water and dirt tight. The tanks come in two sizes: 43 gallons for shortbeds and 58 gallons for longbeds. Both have provisions for an optional transfer pump, and feature a built-in lockbox to store all that other stuff you can't live without.

Bolt-In Engine Cage
Giant Motorsports has come up with a completely bolt-in engine cage setup for Rangers and Explorers that features a detachable crossmember, should you ever need to pull the engine or major parts on the engine. Not only is it bolt-in, but it also clears the battery, brake booster, airbox, and everything else under the hood without modification. The engine cage can be utilized with either single or dual shocks per corner, but comes standard with dual shock mounts. Information: Giant Motorsports, 949.369.7223, www.giantmotorsports.com

Jet Pak
Powertank is always figuring out better ways to blow you away. This time the company has come up with its new Jet Pak, a great alternative to a 12-volt compressor for engaging your air lockers instantly. The kit hooks directly to your electric solenoid valves via Powertank's ARB kit, or you can use the all-brass air-toggle valve kit for a fully pneumatic system. The kit is lightweight, won't take up much room in the interior, has a built-in pressure-release safety valve, and even comes with a second tank included in case you run out of CO2 on the trail.

Billet Fuel Bilge
When was the last time you saw a fuel pump that looked this good? Holley's new HP125 and HP150 billet electric fuel pumps are designed with a gerotor gearset housed in billet for smooth and quiet operation, good looks, and to pump enough juice to power up to 900hp carbureted engines. The HP125 can deliver 110 gph (gallons per hour) at 7 psi, while the NP150 can deliver 150 gph at 7 psi. Both Holley HP fuel pumps feature 3/8-inch NPT inlet and outlets, and come with black powdercoated mounting brackets. Information: Holley Performance Products, 800.465.5391, www.holley.com
Dampers for Dodge Motors
Professional Products wants to remind you to keep your engine running smoothly once you've dumped thousands of dollars into flashy polished intakes and accessories. The company's Powerforce Street Performance and Powerforce+Plus SFI-race dampers cover a large number of Mopar applications thanks to a swappable counterweight design that will reduce destructive crankshaft vibration. And since the counterweights are removable, the damper will work on internally balanced engines as well. Information: Professional Products, 323.779.2020, www.professional-products.com

The kits are made for a complete bolt-on installation, with matching rear brakes available as well. Information: Wilwood Engineering, 805.388.1188, www.wilwood.com
