PACBRAKE

pacbrake.com

Pacbrake began in 1961, building its claim to fame around exhaust brakes for commercial truckers, loggers and the military people whose lives and livelihood depended on equipment that consistently performed well. That’s the foundation this company was built on, and it’s the same standard we’ve held ourselves to every year since.

Today, that heritage shows up in a tow haul product line led by two flagships: ALPHA Air Springs—application-specific air suspension kits built to be more rugged than the competition—and BRAVO wireless controls that put on-the-fly air adjustment in the driver’s hands. Around those, PRXB exhaust brakes deliver controlled, brake friendly descents under load; PowerHalt positive air shutoff valves protect diesel engines from runaway in hazardous environments; and onboard air compressors, air horns and air accessories round out the lineup. Every kit comes with the fitment data and install support your counter staff and installers need to move product off the shelf.

Six decades later, that commitment to quality, durability and value is still in every product we make, and it’s what your customers are getting when they choose Pacbrake off your shelf.

Sixty years of trust is a hard thing to build, but an easy thing to sell. Find a distributor near you at pacbrake.com/find-a-distributor or call us for more info at 1-800-663-0096.

MARADYNE HIGH PERFORMANCE

maradynehp.com

For more than two decades, Maradyne High Performance has built cooling and heating products for racers, fabricators, mechanics and shop owners who depend on reliable performance in demanding setups.

What makes Maradyne High Performance different is simple: it owns the design, engineering and manufacturing process in its ISO 9001:2015 facilities from start to finish. The motors are manufactured in its factory in Izmir, Turkey, while fan blades, housings and shrouds are injection molded in Grand Prairie, Texas. The fans are then assembled and shipped to Cleveland for packaging and distribution.

As an OEM supplier, performance must meet or exceed specifications set by demanding customers. This same engineering expertise is applied to aftermarket products as well. The specifications of Maradyne High Performance products aren’t marketing claims—they are engineering benchmarks.

Maradyne HP’s racing teams run the same off-the-shelf product anyone can buy. These products are proven winners in NASCAR’s ARCA series, NHRA, NDRL, Ultra4, Hotpit and more.

As Maradyne continues investing in U.S. manufacturing and assembly operations, the focus remains the same: building high-quality products, supporting customers and delivering dependable performance over time. That continued trust from shops, builders and racers alike is what continues driving the growth of the Maradyne brand.

EQUATOR EV

equatorev.com

BRINGING CLASSIC CARS BACK TO LIFE THROUGH ELECTRIFICATION.

At Equator EV, we believe the vehicles that shaped our memories deserve a future on tomorrow’s roads. Our mission is to preserve the character, craftsmanship and nostalgia of classic vehicles while upgrading them with modern electric and hybrid technology.

Equator EV specializes in electrification solutions for classic European and American automobiles, pickup trucks and RVs. While our team performs complete vehicle conversions, a major part of our long-term vision is the development of conversion kits that can be taken to market for aftermarket shops, installers, jobbers, dealers and specialty automotive partners.

As each new vehicle comes in for conversion, Equator EV studies the vehicle type, engine configuration, mounting requirements, drivetrain layout, attachment points, available space and intended use. This engineering process allows us to develop repeatable kit solutions for similar vehicle types rather than limiting the solution to one specific model.

For example, Equator EV has developed kit solutions for older German luxury sedans and classic British sports cars. Each kit is created from the initial conversion of a vehicle within that type, allowing our team to document the engineering requirements, mounting points, drivetrain configuration, battery placement and installation process. This helps us turn one successful conversion into a repeatable kit solution that can be adapted for similar vehicles within the same category.

This approach allows Equator EV to serve two important markets. For individual vehicle owners, we provide tailored EV, hybrid and plug-in hybrid conversions that bring classic vehicles back to life with modern performance and dependability. For aftermarket partners, we are building a growing catalog of conversion kit solutions that can help shops and installers enter the electrification market without starting from scratch.

Every Equator EV solution is engineered around the vehicle’s intended application, desired range, performance goals and available space. Our electric conversions start with approximately 100 miles of driving range, while plug-in hybrid systems can provide an additional 40 miles of electric driving before utilizing onboard power generation. Each system is designed using modern AC motor technology, regenerative braking and Lithium Iron Phosphate battery systems to support reliability, efficiency and everyday drivability.

Unlike mass-produced electric vehicles, Equator EV focuses on preserving the original identity of classic vehicles. The goal is not to replace the personality of the vehicle, but to modernize the powertrain in a way that keeps the driving experience familiar, usable and enjoyable.

Conversion pricing begins at $25,000 and varies based on vehicle size, power requirements, range goals, battery capacity and performance targets. Many projects can be completed in as little as 14 days, depending on the vehicle type and conversion scope.

Equator EV’s capabilities also extend beyond classic passenger vehicles. Current development projects include a 1,000-plus-hp hybrid diesel-electric Humvee, demonstrating the flexibility, scalability and performance potential of our engineering platform.

As electrification continues to grow, Equator EV is positioning itself not only as a conversion company, but also as a technology and kit-development partner for the aftermarket industry. Our goal is to make classic vehicle electrification more accessible to owners, shops, installers, dealers and specialty automotive businesses looking to participate in the future of mobility.

The future of transportation does not have to replace the past. At Equator EV, we do not just convert vehicles—we create engineered solutions that give them a second life.Preserve the Past. Drive the Future.

Richmond Gear traces its roots to 1922, when it began as Automotive Gear Works, supplying precision ring-and-pinion gear sets and axles for iconic vehicles such as Duesenberg and Cord. The company’s engineering expertise carried into World War II, when it produced gearing for military Jeep applications, proving durability under demanding conditions.

In the late 1970s, the company rebranded as Richmond Gear and introduced ring-and-pinion sets manufactured from high-strength 9310 alloy steel.

This innovation quickly gained acceptance among racing teams and performance builders seeking increased durability and torque capacity.

These components powered drivers such as Dale Earnhardt Sr., Jeff Gordon and Mark Martin to multiple victories. The company also supported top drivers including Tony Stewart and the Labonte brothers. Now headquartered in Franklinville, North Carolina, Richmond remains close to the heart of NASCAR.

Over the years, Yakima has grown into one of the most recognized names in vehicle gear transportation, earning a reputation for thoughtful design, durability and dependable performance.

Today, Yakima is headquartered in Lake Oswego, Oregon, with additional operations in Brisbane, Australia, serving customers around the world.

Yakima’s products are assembled through a global network of trusted manufacturing and distribution partners, allowing the brand to support outdoor enthusiasts across North America, Europe, Australia and beyond. No matter the destination, Yakima helps people carry the equipment that makes their experiences possible.

The company’s product lineup includes roof racks, hitch-mounted bike racks, cargo boxes, cargo baskets, kayak and water-sport carriers, ski and snowboard mounts and truck rack systems.

Yakima has also expanded into the overlanding and basecamp categories with products such as rooftop tents, awnings and modular storage systems that transform vehicles into versatile adventure platforms.

Innovation remains central to Yakima’s approach. Products are engineered to withstand demanding real-world conditions while remaining easy to use and adaptable to a wide range of vehicles and activities. Modular designs allow customers to customize their setups based on changing needs and interests.

Beyond products, Yakima is committed to supporting outdoor communities through partnerships, events, advocacy efforts and education. The brand believes the outdoors should be accessible to everyone and works to inspire more people to get outside and explore.

For more than 45 years, Yakima has helped people transport their gear with confidence, enabling memorable experiences wherever the journey takes them.
