BDS isn't a new company they have been around for a long time. I kind of place their stuff in line with something like procomp.
I had not realized they came out with a long arm kit for the JK and looking at it I see that not all of the arms are adjustable. Not sure what to think about some of the control arm brackets they bolt on after you drill holes. I would rather weld them on.
No experience with them recently but I remember friends having ok luck with their customer service back when I had TJ's.
Would be interested to see your thoughts if you get the lift.

I had not realized that they had been around a while. Had not heard a lot about them I appreciate the knowledge. Truthfully the only reason I thought about it was due to the low cost of the lift and the warrantee.
