No Bib Needed
How many times have you cut your fingers reeling in your winch line? Knight Scan has introduced an innovative new winch-cable rewind tool called the Winch Lobster. This patented design temporarily clamps to your roller fairlead and makes the time-consuming job of respooling your winch faster and safer. Respooling correctly will extend the life of your cable as it is less likely to kink, fray, or break. Now you can put a straight, tight, factory-type wind on your winch cable anytime, anywhere, in a matter of minutes.

Nothing Beats Strength
The all-new Spider 9 axlehousing was designed with rockcrawling specifically in mind, making this housing nothing like your ordinary 9-inch. It features ultra-high ground clearance, one-piece shell construction, and a compact size, and Spidertrax stocks six popular setups all available for same-day shipping.
All Spider 9 axlehousings are 65 inches long (plenty of axletube to cut to size); are available with centered, left, or right differential offsets; and are available with forward-engine or mid-engine third member orientation (as used in mid-engine competition rockcrawlers). The housings are designed to work with Ford 9-inch-style third members. Mounting hardware and the filler cap assembly are also included.

Keep Your Arms In Shape
Manufacturers don't always equip our vehicles for the adventures we take them on. Often stock parts get worn out simply because you cannot properly service them. Jeepin' By Al has just released a replacement option for the nonserviceable upper A-arms and ball joints on your Jeep Liberty KJ vehicle. The arms are held in place at the factory mounting points and use the original equipment (OE) bushings for quiet operation, and the ball joints can be greased and are easily replaced should they wear out. These A-arms address the OE A-arm contact with the spring, which causes premature ball joint failure on lifted Libertys. In addition, the race-inspired, redesigned Jeepin' By Al A-arms reposition the ball joint, eliminating the adverse angle seen with the OE arm/OE ball joint on lifted Libertys.
The Jeepin' By Al upper A-arms are compatible with all the major lift kits on the market. Currently, these A-arms are only available for Liberty vehicles that have been lifted, but original equipment replacements are forthcoming.

New Mud Friends
All-terrain tires are great, but when the mud comes calling you need something with a more aggressive tread pattern to enjoy the fun. Dick Cepek introduces the Mud Country: an aggressive mud-terrain radial in specialty light truck and traditional light truck sizing. This tire is a great choice for enthusiasts seeking aggressive off-road traction and excellent handling on the street. The Mud Country has three-ply sidewalls for added toughness and a unique, boulder-like stepped tread design to disperse mud and rocks. The new tire comes in 24 sizes from 31 to 40 inches tall in rim diameters up to 20 inches to fit almost every light truck application.
