History

Action Truck Parts has been serving Chicagoland’s truck parts needs since 2005 when they opened their first store in Bolingbrook, which specializes in DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) cleaning as well as stocking new DPF filters for replacement needs. In 2013, Action joined VIPAR Heavy Duty as a premier aftermarket heavy duty parts distributor in the Chicagoland area. Since 2013, Action has become known as one of the top truck parts distributors in the country.

In 2016, Action acquired Darryl Dupre Inc., a long-time parts distributor in the Joliet, IL marketplace. With this acquisition, Action added driveline repair to its product offering and services, making them one of the few heavy-duty parts distributors in Chicagoland to have this service. In 2019 Action opened its third location in Chicago, IL solidifying their place in the Chicago market.

Action was a nominee for the 2017 and 2018 “Distributor of the Year” by Truck Parts & Service Magazine and publication. Action was also recognized for helping move the industry forward with its retail experience and exceptional customer service.
