JIT Truck Parts adds Match Made shock absorbers to HD truck parts offering

JIT Truck Parts has introduced an exclusive new line of shock absorbers under its private label brand, Match Made Parts.

“Our line of shock absorbers is engineered with precision, using the latest enhancements in modern technology. The shocks come with a two-year warranty to offer drivers peace of mind that they are receiving a quality truck part. We are excited to launch our new line of shocks to join an expanding collection of premium aftermarket replacement parts by Match Made,” says JIT Truck Parts president, Michael Walker.

The company says key Match Made product features include:

  • A chrome-plated piston rod that protects against corrosion, extending the life of the shock;
  • A PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) piston seal with anti-corrosive and non-reactive components for lower friction;
  • An inner working tube that is 40% thicker than competing shock parts in order to provide a stronger seal;
  • A proprietary bushing formulation produced with unique oil seal design to control loss of shock oil and nitrogen gas charge;
  • Internal and external welding with the highest strength grade rating in the industry.

Class 8 orders strong in February

Even when seasonally adjusted, ACT says preliminary order numbers for February are up 5% over January.

ACT-Class-8-Feb-truck-orders

According to the latest numbers from ACT Research, preliminary North America Class 8 net orders were 27,700 units, up 600 units from January and 16% from a year ago. With the fourth-largest seasonal factor of the year at 8%, seasonal adjustment reduces February’s Class 8 intake to 25,600 units, up 5% from January.

“Weak freight and carrier profitability fundamentals, and large carriers guiding to lower capex in 2024, would imply pressure in U.S. tractor, the North American Class 8 market’s largest segment,” said Kenny Vieth, ACT’s president and senior analyst. “While we do not yet have the underlying detail for February order volumes, Class 8 demand continuing at high levels again this month suggests that U.S. buyers continue as strong market participants.”
