Alliance Truck Parts is an American private brand that provides parts and accessories for heavy-duty trucks. The company was founded in 1998, as Alliance Brand Parts, and is a division of Daimler Truck North America LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the German company, Daimler Truck AG.

The name change to Alliance Truck Parts occurred in the first quarter of 2011, so that it would more effectively communicate the brand's focus and target market.

The company mostly offers accessories for all models of American and Canadian heavy duty class 8 diesel trucks, though it offers parts for class 5–7 trucks as well.
