Firestone Industrial Products has updated its 44-page air helper springs catalog so consumers can easily select the right product for their vehicle.

Included in the literature is a complete application guide listing part numbers along with detailed descriptions of the company's Ride-Rite™, Sport-Rite™, Coil-Rite™ and Level-Rite™ products.

Firestone air springs help level the load, maximize load capacity and improve the ride and handling of cars, trucks, SUVs, vans and motorhomes. While Firestone air helper springs can be inflated like a tire, the company also offers on-board compressor kits so adjustments can easily be made from the driver's seat at any time.

VERSA-LOK Doubles Grand Prizes in 2006 Landscape Design Contest

Receiving too many good entrants from which to choose a winner is a nice problem to have when you're running a competition. And that's exactly what happened with VERSA-LOK's 2006 Landscape Design Contest this year. As a result, two grand prizes were awarded.

The renovation of Ward Parkway Shopping Center in Kansas City, Mo., won top honors for Chad M. Porter, design team leader with Shafer, Kline & Warren, Inc. of Overland Park, Kan. Porter's extensive use of VERSA-LOK Weathered Mosaic retaining walls in the landscaping created an inviting entranceway and perimeter walls for the mall that fit in beautifully with adjacent residential areas.

Garry Ferrell, landscape designer with Wilson Landscape Associates of Columbus, Ohio, took home a first-place award with an expansive residential project that incorporated everything from a curved staircase that sweeps into an 11-foot retaining wall, to a freestanding outdoor gas fireplace all built with VERSA-LOK Mosaic.

Each first-place winner received $5,000; runners-up won $500 each.
