While there has been a trend at SEMA to over accessorize to the point its the norm and to be expected, there’s a lot to say for a tastefully built, super clean, build that uses a cohesive theme throughout like the 2013 Ford Super Duty owned by Austin Mayfield of Big Truck Mafia (BTM).

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…
