Centric Parts has introduced a complete program of premium chassis components. The full coverage program was announced recently, prior to the opening of the annual AAPEX Show at the Sands Convention Center in Las Vegas. The announcement coincides with the opening of Centric’s new Chassis Center of Excellence in Madison Heights, Mich., which consolidates the company’s chassis research and development programs under one roof.
The new Centric Parts Chassis Program offers wide coverage of suspension and steering components for the majority of vehicles sold in the U.S. over the past 70 years. The company says the line is engineered to restore OE performance, and is designed to provide smooth steering and exceptional control using premium materials and hardware for extended service life.
The Centric Parts Chassis Program includes:
• Steering
• Tie Rod Ends & Adjusting Sleeves
• Inner Sockets (Rack & Pinion)
• Rack & Pinion Bushings and Bellows Kits
• Drag & Center Links
• Idler & Pitman Arms
• Track Bars
• Suspension
• Ball Joints and Control Arm Assemblies
• Control Arm Bushings and Shaft Kits
• Radius Arm & Strut Rod Bushing Kits
• Sway Bar Links & Mount Bushings
• Axle Pivot, Spring & Misc. Bushings
• Coil Springs
• King Pins
“We have been a major participant in the suspension category for over 10 years,” said Paul Stewart, executive vice president of sales and marketing. “As with the brake category, our goal is to provide our customers with the best value, enabling them to grow sales and profits.”
Centric says the new chassis program represents an evolution and expansion of the existing program at Qualis Automotive, which has been an industry leader since 2003. The expanding Centric Parts chassis program currently includes more than 8,500 Centric Premium SKUs, as well as nearly 2,000 C-Tek standard chassis components, which will be available for purchase in late November of this year.
