"Customer excitement has been high for the full availability of our newest vocational workhorse, the Model 567 in a set-forward front axle (SFFA) confi gu- ration," says Robert Woodall, Peterbilt assistant general manager of Sales and Marketing. The Model 567 SFFA is available in both 115- and 121-in. BBC lengths. The 115-in. BBC has a bumper to front axle distance of 29 in. and the 121-in. BBC has a bumper to front axle distance of 31 in. Peterbilt also offers the Model 567 in a set-back front axle confi guration, also available in a 115- or 121-in. BBC length, the company says. Both Model 567 confi gurations are standard with the Paccar MX-13 engine, and available as a day cab or sleeper. Set-forward vocational 567 from Peterbilt Expanded reman water pump line Haldex has expanded its remanufactured water pump line to include Eastern Industries water pumps. Haldex says it will initially add 24 new SKUs of Eastern Industries water pumps with further expansion scheduled later in the year. As a result of the expansion, Haldex says it has more than 200 medium- and heavy-duty water pump part numbers. Eastern castings are patterned after the OEM units, Haldex says, precision machined to the exact tolerances and original specifi cations, and tested prior to shipment at its certifi ed remanufacturing facility in Marion, N.C. Marketplace Expanded reman water pump line All-position retread tire Goodyear introduces its new G186 MSA (mixed-service all-position) UniCircle retread, which features Goodyear's spliceless UniCircle Technology. Available now, the G186 MSA UniCircle boasts three zig-zag circumferential grooves for extra all-season traction, a long-wearing compound for increased tread life, and other features. Goodyear says another benefi t of its UniCircle Technology is how the spliceless tread is applied to casings. Goodyear says UniCircle treads are automatically positioned on casings using laser-guided technology and are precision-stitched. Because there is no cutting or splicing during the UniCircle tread application process, the resulting retread is uniform and balanced, which helps extend casing life and mileage, the company says. Filter restriction kit The Racor Division of Parker Hannifi n introduces its Filter Re- striction Indicator Kit for Green- MAX Fuel Filter Water Separators. The new Filter Restriction Indicator kit includes a fi lter minder and threaded adapter to fi t on the GreenMAX fuel fi lter water separator system, the company says.

It is also formu- lated to cling to vertical surfaces. Oil Eater All Purpose also is a powerful pH neutral cleaner that is non-toxic, biodegradable and and will not harm the skin, the company says.
