Aurora Parts and Fruehauf have reached a strategic agreement making Aurora Parts the exclusive aftermarket distributor of all Fruehauf parts in the United States.
Fruehauf celebrated the grand opening of their new production facility in June 2022 in Bowling Green, Kentucky, reintroducing the Fruehauf brand to the U.S. after 25 years. At the new facility, they will be manufacturing both composite and sheet-and-post dry van trailers.
"Aurora has a long history of supplying Fruehauf aftermarket parts and technical support,” said Brad Fulkerson, president and CEO, Aurora Parts. “Fruehauf is a pioneer in the semi-trailer industry, and we are excited to be partnering with them once again.”

With a nationwide footprint of parts distribution centers, extensive parts inventory, and investment in technology solutions, along with decades of Fruehauf-specific part knowledge, Aurora is positioned to provide Fruehauf customers across the country with best-in-class service. Fruehauf parts are now available on Aurora Parts To Go (www.aurorapartstogo.com).
“We are confident that this new partnership with Aurora Parts will provide the best support for our customers in the US,” said Tom Wiseman, Fruehauf president. “Fruehauf has always had a great reputation in the market and for it to re-enter the US market after being absent for over 25 years, I think it will be welcomed by many of Fruehauf's past and future customers.”
