After a few month winter hibernation show season is upon us and ramping back up for 2014. With a few events under our belt already, BDS is prepping for a busy April as we head west for the 48th Annual Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah.

Tow Rope Snowboarding at BDS Suspension
Let me start off by saying BDS Suspension in no way endorses dangerous stunts, breaking laws, and legally need to verbalize you to not try this at home… but what would you do if you had a lunch hour to kill in the middle of winter, keys to a bad ass lifted truck, an old snowboard and tow rope sitting in storage.

BDS hits the powder at SnoFari 2014
BDS hits the powder at SnoFari 2014 This past weekend BDS hit the highway for a short 3 hour trip up north for the snowy 4wheeling adventure known as SnoFari. With Project KJ in tow, we took our 2013 Ram 3500 dubbed Project Slate up for a weekend of wheeling in the snow cloaked trails around West Branch, MI. Hosted by the Soldiers of Fortune Offroad Club (SoFo) SnoFari brings out roughly 80 rigs for 2 days and nights in the powdery white stuff. This marking the 8th annual event was on the snowier side with plenty of accumulation this winter in Michigan and several inches of fresh powder and single digit temps all weekend long. BDS hit the trails in our ’05 Liberty CRD and took turns carving a path through the 12-30” snow drifts out on the trail. We had a blast wheeling with the group, catching up with old friends and…
