Roco 4×4 Leads Offroad Adventure in Honduras
Several months back the team at Roco 4×4Â out of Miami, FL proposed an offroad adventure of epic proportion. Known as RAW2018 (Roco 4×4 Adventure Weekend 2018) this week long offroad adventure would put drivers and machines to the test navigating a mix of muddy, rocky terrain through dense jungles and even urban cities. What’s more, it would be on foreign soil in the Central American country of Honduras where spare parts and repairs would be difficult (if not impossible) to figure out. Being most of the vehicles are US based they would need to be loaded into containers and floated down to Honduras by ship. The participants would then fly down to go on the adventure. Fast forward a few months just wrapped up in November 2018 with a group comprised of Roco 4×4 staff, customers and vendors in attendance. Among them participants was yours truly, BDS Suspension, who helped…

2018 SEMA Battle of the Builders
Each year thousands of the top automotive customizers converge on the SEMA Show to showcase their latest creations. The show is a mix of late model and classic rides; some lifted, some lowered; from radical hotrod to purpose built race vehicles; bro dozers to rice rockets. Of those thousands of vehicles only a few hundred enter the ultimate builder showdown known as the Battle of the Builders. This competition pits the best builders and the most unique builds again one another where only one can take home the top honor. Throughout the show the competitors are narrowed down to the top 100 builds, then top 40, then top 12 voted on a handful of industry professionals. For 2018 Battle of the Builders the BDS team entered the build, the 2019 Ford Ranger dubbed Project Ranger X. While the truck didn’t make the top 12, it did make it to the…
Power Automedia Visits #ProjectRangerX at SEMA
? Power Automedia met up with BDS at the Ford booth at the 2018 SEMA Show to get some insight on #ProjectRangerX. Ford’s booth is definitely one of the best booths at SEMA. The 2019 Ford Ranger is coming to America, and not only did we got our hands on one of the first in the country, but we had the opportunity to do a complete overhaul on it and have it featured in Ford’s booth. This build was inspired by adventure. We are offroad enthusiasts and we wanted this truck to reflect that. This truck is awesome right out of the gate both on road and offroad, but we wanted to take it to the next level so that no adventure was out of reach. For full details on #ProjectRangerX check out our blog post on it at https://blog.bds-suspension.com/?p=17021
Ranger Builds of SEMA 2018
Its an exciting time in the mid sized truck world as the Ford Ranger returns to the great US of A for 2019. While at the 2018 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, we took some time to visit our favorite 2019 Ford Ranger builds, including our very own, #ProjectRangerX. Most of these builds were featured in the Ford booth, and almost all of them featured BDS Suspension Systems on them. These lift systems will be making their way into the market in the near future. You can find more information about the Ford Rangers that were in Ford’s Booth at the Ford 2018 Sema Show Press Release.
Power Automedia’s Interview with BDS
Our friends at Power Automedia stopped by our booth at the 2018 SEMA Show to find out more about what BDS has been up to. We started off by giving a quick run down of #ProjectSD126. This Ford Super Duty was our build that we did for the Ford booth for the 2017 SEMA Show. Project SD126 was built to not only look good, but perform out on the trails and open desert. The frame off overhaul included off the shelf parts from some of the best companies in the industry combined with top level fabrication from the BDS build team. What started as an idea to bring back an old favorite has evolved into a super cool and over the top 2017 Ford Super Duty standard-cab, short-bed, diesel that turns heads everywhere it goes. We also gave a quick overview of our build for Ford’s booth this year.…
