Off-Road Overhaulin’ Dodge
BDS Suspension recently got involved on a truck buildup on the Outdoor Channel’s Off-Road Overhaul show. The recipient of the off-road makeover was Markus Voegler and his 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 Powerwagon.  When Mike Duval, host of the show told us about the project we jumped on board with a complete long arm kit to outfit the truck. If you haven’t checked out the show look for it on the Monday nights at 5:30pm, 9:30pm, 12:00am, and 2:30am (EST). We recently received a message from Markus that read  “I am not sure where to start, I am one of the lucky people chosen to have my vehicle overhauled for Offroad Overhaul on Outdoor Channel.  The vehicle is a 2008 Dodge Powerwagen.  The vehicle was outfitted with a 6 inch BDS Suspension long arm.  I wanted to take a moment and Thank You for setting me up with such a killer…
New Facilities!!!
Truckmaster Distributing, home of BDS Suspension, Zone Offroad Products, 4×4 Posi-Lok and numerous other quality 4×4 product lines is in the process of moving into their new biggerdigs. Here’s what Truckmaster’s President, Steve Olmstead had to say: Truckmaster Distributing continues to add new products and new product lines to better serve our customers. Over the past several years we have seen our business explode to the point we cannot hire one more associate nor put in any more inventory simply because we’ve run out of space. On the one hand this can be viewed as a really positive thing. But when our business has been built on shipping the same day and never being out, lack of space has begun to affect our core principles. The solution… buy a bigger building, and we did! The new facility is still located in Coldwater, MI and is nearly double the size of…

OK Auto’s Open House
BDS made the trip out to OK Auto’s annual open house event last weekend to a day of fun out on the east coast. OK Auto continues to improve their shop out in Stewartsville, NJ and holds this event each spring as a way to say thanks to their customers. BDS was among a few vendors that showed up to take part in the festivities. There was plenty to see and do all day with the rock climbing wall, off-road obstacle course  and vendors showing off the latest products. BDS had its new late-model Tacoma lift on display in the BDS booth. We had a ton of customers stop by to chat about their BDS lifts and plenty more came by interested in getting their trucks lifted. Pro biker, Chris Clark brought out his bike and performed some amazing stunts for the crowd. A big thanks to everyone that stopped…
Rock Spyder’s 4×4 Open House
Canadian BDS Distributor Rock Spyder 4×4 hosted their 5th Annual Customer Appreciation Day out at their Markham, Ontario shop over the weekend. Hundreds made it out for the event in an assortment of trucks, Jeeps, and rock buggies to celebrate another great year with Rock Spyder 4×4. With vendors on site and BBQ lunch served, and trucks lining the grounds there was not shortage of things to do all day.

Check out some of the photos from the event.
11th Annual Jeep Blessing Recap
BDS Suspension returned to Mesick, MI for the 11 Annual Jeep Blessing hosted by the Cadillac Jeepers. Each year the event grows and this year continued that trend with Jeeps of all shapes, sizes, colors and years were in attendance. Heck, there were plenty of non-Jeep vehicles taking part in the weekend of 4wheel action. We love making the short trip up from Coldwater, MI each to take part in this event to see past customers and hearing stories of where they take their BDS-equipped rigs. A record attendance with 1108 Jeeps signed up for this 1-day festival. With trails like the new Chadville open and other being updated and improved the Jeepers were excited to throw it into low range and play out on the rocks. After a morning rain the ever popular mud pit brought in quite a crowd all day to see who could make it through the…
