, the new training page include videos, technical bulletins, online catalogs and FAQs for light- and heavy-duty vehicles.

“The convenience and resources from the new training menu have received a lot of positive feedback,” said Jonathon Gore, director of marketing at Gabriel North America. “We are dedicated to keeping our customers educated about our products. By expanding our Answerman page to a full menu of resources and training options, we strive to provide as much education as possible.”

The new training menu is divided into two sections: light-vehicle training and heavy-duty training. Each section includes a series of training videos to help dealers and installers better-sell Gabriel shocks and struts, as well as to ensure their proper handling and optimum performance.

The menu also provides FAQs to provide a variety of information to dealers, installers and consumers.

Technical bulletins and the Answerman Tech Line will educate Gabriel customers on product installation and safety, inspection, proper disposal and the best fit for a vehicle in question, along with many other useful topics, according to Ride Control.

The new training menu also accepts field-training requests for Gabriel ride-control on-site product training. Here, Gabriel customers can request custom Gabriel product-knowledge training at their operation, based on availability. Training participants can include parts managers, mechanics or outside sales personnel.

The full online PDF catalog for light-vehicle and heavy-duty ride-control products is available for dealers and customers to choose the best possible option for their sale. Gabriel’s interactive Part Lookup is available on the home page for quick and easy instant online search by application or part number.

      Rislone announced its new 
      link hidden, please login to view (p/n 4400), which it said improves oil performance to eliminate dry starts, reduce friction and wear, prevent oil breakdown and extend engine life. “Its concentrated formula delivers legendary Rislone Hy-per Lube performance in a compact, easy-to-use, and shelf-friendly bottle,” the company added. Hy-per Lube Engine Supplement is a premium additive blend formulated to work with all motor oils, including conventional, high-mileage, and synthetic, to make older, high-mileage, and high-performance engines run better and last longer than they would with oil alone, according to
      link hidden, please login to view. It’s also suitable for use in manual transmissions, differentials and axles. Rislone said it previously offered the supplement in a one-quart bottle, making it easy to swap a quart of oil for a quart of Hy-per Lube at every oil change. Now that most consumers buy oil in larger jugs, Rislone added it took the opportunity to reduce the package size — and the price. Concentrating the formula enabled Rislone to package it in a 16.9 oz. bottle without diluting performance. The smaller bottle also reduces packaging waste and storage space.
      “Adding Hy-per Lube Engine Supplement to petroleum or synthetic oils turns them into hyper-performance lubricants that deliver heavy-duty protection for all driving demands across a wide range of engine and vehicle types,” said Clay Parks, Rislone vice president of development. “In these days of high prices, we’re proud to have found a way to lower ours. Our concentrated formula saves consumers money at the counter and in years to come by helping their engines last longer.”
