BMR Suspension, based in Lakeland, Florida, has acquired hot-rod and musclecar parts manufacturer Heidts Suspension of Lake Zurich, Illinois.

The acquisition allows BMR Suspension to further its mission of providing innovative, quality-oriented American-made suspension and chassis products at an affordable price, the company said.

"BMR Suspension and Heidts Suspension are like two sides of the same coin," says Allan Miller, president of BMR Suspension. "BMR dominates the American late-model market and Heidts dominates the American musclecars and street rods, so this synergy is perfect for our two companies and customers moving forward."

"This acquisition combines decades of engineering expertise, US manufacturing capabilities and a deep focus on quality," states Wallace Leyshon, president and CEO of Heidts Suspension. "Moving forward, this partnership ensures that we will expand our commitment to American craftsmanship while developing innovative suspension solutions for the vehicles our customers love."

The sale of Heidts to Miller Performance Products was facilitated by Hart Marx Advisors. The financial terms of the purchase were not disclosed.

Both BMR and Heidts will continue to operate independently of each other, continuing to serve the needs of their respective customers. BMR Suspension will continue to expand upon its established lineup for Ford, GM and Mopar offerings, while BMR and Heidts will collaborate closely to create new product lines.
