Hey I look at all of the bds treads that I could find, I know what I am looking for, and I google'd it. This is what I found:

Now before I order it I am just wondering if they are the right ones. I tried to email them to find out but I have not heard anything back from them. If these are not can some one let me know where a sopt to order them online is at so I can get these knocked off of my list

call BDS or go to their website to get the proper part #, then call the people you are buying it from to confirm that that is what they are selling.

at first look I dont think those are right. The logo on the BDS shocks I have seen is a skull and cross bones made from tire tracks.

this should be a pretty simple task.

It is simple if I had a phone in Afghan right now which I dont, which is why I posted on here. I know how to do research, but with limited things, and ways to talk to people live it is hard to do.

Skull and crossbones is just a sticker, that comes seperate to put on yourself. SO that shouldn't really matter in a sample pic of a product...

But yes this should be easy, I forget exactly what the # was but it'll most likely be on this forum multiple times.

With enough effort, we can boot each other's asses around the campfire until we're all raised to a higher level of Google-fu. :work: :excited: :woot:

At least nobody broke out my favorite noob-poking tool I use on the OS:
