The automotive and heavy-duty aftermarket teams at The Timken Company have launched a new online site for technicians and do-it-yourself installers: www.connect.timken.com, which provides a central destination for industry and technical information and collaboration.

“We're introducing Timken's Connect Community as a place where automotive professionals and do-it-yourselfers can pose questions to one another, as well as to Timken's technical and product teams,” said Barry Harris, marketing manager of the automotive and heavy-duty aftermarket for Timken. “We want it to be the place where auto enthusiasts exchange information about all things related to the automotive and heavy-truck aftermarket.”

The website will feature discussion boards focused on automotive maintenance, heavy-duty maintenance, and racing. There will be blogs with regular posts by members of the Timken aftermarket team, certified ASE technicians, and other members of the industry. In addition, the site will offer technical resources including a technical and video library with how-to content.
