A new parts and service buyers guide featuring manufacturers, distributors, heavy duty specialists and marketing groups, will be produced in conjunction with the industry’s first Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week.

Published under an agreement between HDAW and Newport Communications Group, the guide will appear in the January issue of Heavy Duty Trucking. An online, interactive version will be carried here at Truckinginfo.com. In addition to HDT’s 103,000-plus fleet circulation, 30,000 bonus printed copies will be distributed at parts counters nationwide.
Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week is scheduled Jan. 23-27 at The Mirage in Las Vegas. It will consolidate the leading aftermarket organizations’ meetings into a single week of events and include training, educational and social functions, and a trade show.
The new National Parts & Service Buyers Guide will include listings for: Heavy Duty Manufacturers Assn.; Heavy Duty Distribution Assn.; Council of Fleet Specialists; Heavy Duty America; Heavy Duty Remanufacturers Group; National Wheel & Rim Assn.; Overseas Automotive Council; Power Heavy Duty; Service Specialists Assn.; and others.
“This will be the first time all these organizations and their member locations will be listed in one place,” said Peter Joy, Heavy Duty Aftermarket Manufacturers Council Chairman, and President of Haldex CVS. “The new buyers guide will be a far more useful tool for fleets than any produced in the past.”
The guide will be produced in a new, easy-to-use format to enable truck operators to quickly locate and communicate with parts and repair centers coast-to-coast, said HDT Publisher Marty McClellan. “Our online version will offer the customer the added value of instant interaction with parts and service suppliers,” he said.
