Tag Archives: Easter Jeep Safari

3 days to go and the shop is a wreck. Multiple vehicles torn apart, truck parts arriving daily, and a good mix of panic with anticipation as we get ready for this year’s Easter Jeep Safari (EJS) in Moab, UT. This annual gathering held the week before Easter brings thousands of 4Wheelers from around the US and beyond for a week of 4wheeling in the beautiful red rock terrain around Moab. There is even a 2-day vendor show towards the end of the week and a raffle of hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of vendor products. BDS has been attending this show for the better part of the last decade as the Red Rock 4Wheelers Club host their 49th Jeep Safari. Over the years this event has grown to mammoth proportions with hundreds of vendors and even Jeep using the event to debut cool new concepts each year. While the majority of…

If you’re a fan of last minute, crunch time builds like we are, then the latest episode of Dirt Every Day is right up your alley. In the episode titled “Mayhem to Moab” 4Wheel & Offroad Magazine’s editor Fred Williams buys a plain jane TJ nicknamed “tubesock” and in less than 2 weeks turned it into a capable trail rig to wheel out in Moab, UT for the 49th annual Easter Jeep Safari. The Jeep was outfitted with a long list of mods to include a BDS long arm kit with Fox shocks, Chris Durham Motorsports hood, Poison Spyder armor, Currie axles, ARB lockers, Pitbull tires and more. Watch as Fred and a few buddies take on the Mayhem to Moab challenge and build this TJ into a capable little rock crawler. Watch the video on YouTube at Mayhem to Moab

It seems to be tradition now. Each Spring thousands of Jeepers make the journey from around the country and beyond to converge on the quiet town of Moab, UT for a weeklong event that combines trail rides, parties, a 2-day vendor show and raffling off of more than $250,000 in aftermarket goodies. With daily trail rides and events every night, Easter Jeep Safari has become a bucket list event, that thousands check off each year again and again. BDS Suspension made the trip out to run trails, test new products and chat with customers at the 2-day vendor show. With the rigs loaded BDS made the long haul from Michigan to the red rocks of Moab, UT with Project Slate our 2013 Ram 3500 Diesel, Project KJ, our 2005 Liberty CRD, and the BDS Ram 2500 Diesel. The week in Moab was amazing. From catching up with old friends and…
