I am excited for the future opportunities presented by this new partnership as Dorman will now offer customers the most comprehensive chassis offering in today’s aftermarket.

We look forward to meeting with all MAS customers next week at AWDA and AAPEX in Las Vegas,” said Matt Barton, president and CEO.
