The Peterbilt 379 has an absolute legend status in the trucking world. It was built from 1987 to 2007.

Why it’s famous:

• Classic long-hood design – the stretched nose + square headlights = timeless.
• Built for customization – chrome for days, stretched frames, show trucks, you name it.
• Aluminum cab – lighter, rust-resistant, and tough.
• Old-school + muscle – looks mean and pulls hard.

What It Was Built For:

• Long-haul freight.
• Heavy haul.
• Owner-operators who wanted power, style, and personality.
• This wasn’t a “fleet special” truck – it was a statement.

A Dura-Lite radiator for a Peterbilt 379 is a robust aftermarket replacement radiator designed specifically to cool heavy-duty diesel engines (common in big trucks like the 379). Dura-Lite radiators are built stronger than many factory units and typically offer better cooling performance and durability – ideal if you’re replacing an old or damaged radiator.
