About

Welcome to the new UDGMTruck.com store. This store compliments the Unique Diesel e-commerce business by adding high quality automotive engines, and related components. The focus of this store is offering components we use our self in personal engine builds, replacements, performance and general maintenance. The 6.2 and 6.5L Diesel engines have become a classic engine design that has a great amount of support with a quality OEM like AM General's General Engine Products and fuel system components from Stanadyne and Bosch, and many aftermarket providers. Because GM's support for this engine has pretty much ended there are offerings from several aftermarkets. Some aftermarket parts are good, while others are simply off-shore garbage. We weed out the suspect and provide the performers.

What about Peninsular products?

Unique Diesel acquired all of Peninsular's assets in 2018, including automotive offerings. We were interested in Peninsular because they had similar values to that of Unique Diesel, interested in quality engineering and products. Most products previously offered by Peninsular are available through Unique Diesel, although we've decided to obsolete some items of course that were obviously too low volume, too individual, or not profitable.

Finding and Identifying parts in this store

We've tried to identify parts in the store by giving them names that are easy to search for. Please make use of the Search box on the store as it's a powerful tool to find the items you're looking for.

Items are categorized in this store into many major categories. These categories also have sub-categories to make it easier to find groups of parts and items.

How to identify the grade and quality of a part or component on this store? Items that are "New" in condition will just be the description for the item. Items that are "Used" will start out with the title Used. Items that are remanufactured or rebuilt or reconditioned will bare the name "Reman". Additionally, when we use the term "OE" that means Original Equipment, as made by a previous OEM or current OEM of the 6.5L engine, effectively non-aftermarket.

Bulk ordering of components

This store is setup to prohibit bulk ordering of individual components. Many components are setup to allow ordering of the amount of an item as found on 1 engine assembly or 1 vehicle per order. We do not limit multiple orders. While we may have more of an item available to strategically have inventory available we are not focused on warehousing, but on individual sales. With that said, we may be able to provide quantity of items from our supplier and distribution networks on an as-needed basis. Orders for specific items will be quoted based on current replacement pricing and provided a lead-time (typical 6-weeks) for fulfillment, order will not come out of existing inventory. Use the Sales contact form and select Bulk Ordering as the subject while logged into your customer account to make the request.

Store usability - Phone vs Computer

This store is compatible with both full-featured computers and mobile devices such as Phones. While the store is compatible with a phone, your experience will be limited by the small screen and changes in how the store appears and navigates. We prefer to use a mobile device only when absolutely necessary, but afforded the opportunity a computer always works better. These statements are being made due to the "mobile first" initiatives on the internet that effectively are "limiting" what sites can and can't do, and it's result is less is more, or wait, is less always less (we think so).

Main point: if you're looking for something and want the best experience, fire up the computer (heck, they cost less than a phone now days) and give the site a whirl, you'll be glad you did.

Store Updates and upcoming products

November 2022, store resumption of service after being offline since May 2022. This reduction in service was required due to a reorganization in operations and inventory. The reorganization led to leasing marine inventory to another organization to resume customer services and parts continuity for a product line, this has had implications on this product division as well. Fortunately, moving forward it is anticipated that the frequency of new product additions to this store and will increase due to a reduced load on the business owner from customer service type involvement and order fulfillment. Look for more product additions.

November 2022, reduction in force yields temporary change in shipping options. Currently shipping is reduced to ground services only as the support to handle the prompt turnaround for express services isn't possible with limited manpower. If you need something express, sadly, you will be better served to source the resource elsewhere as express cannot be accommodated.

May 15, 2020 is the first launch of this store. This has been the answer to help customers answer questions about some product availability and to facilitate smoother purchases. Less hassle to get what you need than to email and await for quotes and what not.

We will be adding products frequently
