PORTLAND, Ore. – Dec. 3, 2015 – Alliance Truck Parts, a leading aftermarket parts brand for the commercial transportation industry, has introduced grilles to its crash parts product line, making it the first OE private label brand to offer an all-makes grilles program.

Manufactured with chromed composite, Alliance Truck Parts grilles are designed for most all makes and all models of heavy-duty trucks, including options for Freightliner, International, Mack and Volvo. The new grilles will be available throughout Freightliner, Western Star and Thomas Built Buses dealerships in the U.S. and Canada starting December 2015.

“We’re extremely pleased to be the first OE private label brand to provide a low-cost, high-quality grille for the commercial transportation industry,” said Catherine Auckland, director, aftermarket marketing, Daimler Trucks North America. “These new grilles, which are a significant expansion to our crash parts product line, illustrate our commitment to providing the most comprehensive suite of collision products available.”

Alliance Truck Parts grilles are simple to install, allowing customers to get back on the road faster. Easy and accurate fitment of the grilles is achieved with a clip attachment method and minimal hardware requirements, making it possible for even nontechnical staff to install the grilles in just a matter of minutes.

Grilles are the newest addition to the Alliance Truck Parts crash parts product line, which also includes bumpers, radiators, glass, HVAC condensers, charge air coolers, fuel tanks, mirrors and LED lights. Alliance Truck Parts crash parts products are made available to ensure that parts dealers and body shops have the parts needed to make Freightliner and Western Star dealer locations the best option for collision repairs.
