Dana to supply axles, driveshafts for 2018 Isuzu FTR

Dana Inc. announced that it will be supplying axles and driveshafts for the 2018 Isuzu FTR, which will begin production in mid-2017. The 2018 Isuzu FTR will be assembled with a Spicer single-reduction drive axle, Spicer E-Series steer axles, and a Spicer Life Series driveshaft from Dana’s Spicer line.

“We chose Spicer axles and driveshafts for the 2018 Isuzu FTR due to Dana’s dedication to quality and innovation,” said Shaun Skinner, president of Isuzu Commercial Truck of America. “This truck represents our vision of the future for the medium-duty industry. The truck of tomorrow needs to be fuel efficient, maneuverable, environmentally friendly, and offer a low cost of ownership. Dana’s driveline components will help achieve all of those objectives.”
