Testimonial: 1978 Ford Bronco
We talked to Todd Langley a few weeks back about his 1978 Ford Bronco project and what option would be best to meet his needs. After talking with tech support they decided on a 4” BDS lift kit with replacement rear leaf springs. After picking up the parts from BDS Distributor Eastern Truck & Accessories, Todd took to installign the kit on his 30+ year old blue oval. He sent us a message saying about the look, the fitment and the quality of the parts. He wrote to us that it drives even better than stock, even  handled speeds in excess of 70mph. Thanks for the message Todd, we’re happy to hear your Bronco is doing well, and thanks for choosing us to be a part of your project.
Lima 4-Wheel Jamboree Recap
This past weekend the city of Lima played host to several thousand 4WD enthusiasts. With blistering hot temperatures and clear skies all weekend, the Lima 4-Wheel Jamboree had an impressive turnout of trucks, Jeepers, and 4WDs. BDS made the short trip down from Michigan to take part in the event. We love coming down for the Jamborees and getting to see our customers and talk with people interested in lifting their trucks. BDS brought the Ram 2500 with an 8” lift and 40s  out for the event along with the new 6” Tacoma on 35s and displays. There was plenty to do all weekend long with activities for 4WD fans of all ages. Fox Racing set up next to BDS to show off their lineup of products and talk about the Fox/BDS relationship. We always see some familiar faces at these events and this year was no different with BDS…
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…
