Today's vendor spotlight is Firestone. When our founder, Harvey Firestone, worked as a salesman for the Columbus Buggy Company, he was the first to equip his vehicle with pneumatic tires. This pioneering spirit has become synonymous with the Firestone name, as the company has continued to lead the industry for over 115 years. The Firestone Tire Company was founded on a commitment to delivering exceptional quality and service, with the goal of emerging victorious in any competition. This mindset led to the development of the non-skid tread pattern, which became an industry standard in 1909. It has also enabled our drivers to win the Indianapolis 500 over 60 times, with many more victories to come. As a result, Firestone remains a household name, generations after Mr. Firestone entered the tire business. However, we recognize that there are still many roads ahead, and we look forward to continuing to shape the future of the industry.

Vender Spotlight for today is Borgeson, Founded in Torrington, CT, Borgeson Universal began manufacturing universal joints for lathes and milling machines in 1914. By the 1920’s, Ford was using Borgeson universal joints for the steering on some of their prototypes. Borgeson Universal continued to develop and refine u-joints for industrial, aerospace and OEM vehicle applications. When purchased in 1982 by the current owners, two avid Street Rodders, Borgeson soon began developing applications for Street Rods. Borgeson has continually improved and developed the original needle bearing universal joints into the most reliable, smoothest operating, strongest u-joints available today.

Seeking to expand, Borgeson ventured into manual steering gears with the acquisition of Mullins Steering Gears in 2001 and in July 2012 Borgeson acquired the original equipment, tooling, drawings and the OE manufacturing rights for all Saginaw manual steering gear boxes. In 2016 Borgeson relocated from its home of over 100 years in Torrington CT and expanded into a new 101,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Travelers Rest SC. This 101,000 square foot plant was designed and built for increased production and capacity to better serve our customers. We use the latest manufacturing and inventory control procedures to maintain stock, and take great pride in being able to ship most orders placed by 1:30 EST the same day. Today, Borgeson is the leading manufacturer and supplier of aftermarket steering components for the street rod, racing, specialty automotive, OEM and pickup truck markets.

Vender spotlight of the day is Rigid Light Shop, We are a family run business nestled in the quaint town of Oakley, CA.

Todd Schafer, founder and owner, started in the eCommerce industry in 2008 with the creation of our parent company, Norcal Auto Concepts, LLC. Over the past eleven years, we have started a handful of eCommerce sites selling in the Automotive Aftermarket. Motorintakes.com was our first, followed by Autotuningstore.com, SuspensionPartShop.com and SuspensionHaus.com. We now decided that we want to concentrate on one brand, Rigid Industries.

At the 2018 SEMA Convention in Las Vegas Todd met with the Rigid Industries representatives and was so impressed with Rigid's philosophies and work practices that a deal was negotiated where we would sell Rigid products exclusively under the name Rigid Light Shop.

The Vendor of the the day is Ready Lift. ReadyLIFT® Suspension Inc. was founded in 2006 on the principles of developing a line of economical yet innovative suspension leveling products that would allow Truck and SUV owners to be able to “level” their vehicles in order to install Plus-size wheels and tires.

The original ReadyLIFT line of suspension products was developed to provide consumers with a cost-effective alternative for their needs, essentially designing the exact product they were looking for – clearance for bigger wheels and tires, an improved ‘leveled’ stance, and that “factory” ride & handling.

ReadyLIFT Suspension Inc. was acquired by Wheel Pros in 2018. Wheel Pros is a leading designer, marketer, and distributor of branded automotive aftermarket wheels, performance tires, and accessories.
