Volvo Trucks’ new Payload Plus packages for VNR and VNL trucks have been unveiled to max- imize payloads and fuel economy in weight-sen- sitive applications like tankers, bulk haulers, and specific dry van operations.
Up to 540 lbs are shed from VNR regional trac- tors, and more than 335 lbs come off the VNL long- haul models. Lightweight components in the Pay- load Plus packages include a horizontal exhaust, aluminum wheels, and lightweight chassis com- ponents. Other opportunities to reduce weight can include optimized wheelbases and frame rail thicknesses. TN
Bridgestone has unveiled the Bandag BRSS all-position retread for fleets working in on- and off-road environ- ments from pavement to dirt and gravel.
Meant for applications from logging to oil refining and construction, the tire features a 20/32-inch tread for extended wear, a special- ized compound to resist chip- ping and cutting, and an opti- mized tread design to keep out stones. It comes in 190, 200, 210, 220, 230, and 240- mm widths. TN
Utility Trailer Manufactur- ing has made its 20K Duct Floor System standard for the 3000R base model refrig- erated trailer.
The floor helps to control weight because it doesn’t require other structural enhancements, the company notes.
It features a 20,000-lb capac- ity for fork trucks with 12-inch wide front tires. The aluminum duct floor planks also have 30% more upper wear thickness than Utility’s prior 16K stan- dard floor. TN
Dana’s Spicer Select all-makes drivetrain port- folio now includes the most popular U-joints for commercial applications while also adding new U-joint strap kits.
Dana recommends replacing the support- ing hardware when installing a new U-joint, so the new offerings now deliver a complete replacement kit.
Driveshaft series to be covered include Spicer’s 1710/1760 and 1810 Series, while the 1610 Series includes U-joints only. Spicer Select strap kits are also available for Spicer SPL170 and SPL250 driveshafts. TN

AME International has unveiled RimWit and RimWit Junior – tools to loosen stubborn truck wheels and rims without dam-
aging tire side-
walls or the rims themselves.

powered by an
electric or air
impact wrench,
and will work
with steel or
aluminum rims.
Its junior counterpart will accommodate 19.5-inch truck tires. TN
TransCore Link Logistics has unveiled the next generation of its Loadlink load board, giving members the power to combine all of their freight matching activities on Canada’s largest freight- matching network.
The single platform enables a lighter, faster, and seamless service that requires no installation, the company says.

• Templates for frequent lanes: Repetitive postings are easily accessed
with the option to re-post selected postings or all postings available for
the day.
• Preferred networks: Private networks can be customized to benefit
preferred companies in specific lanes. TN
