Smooth is how Boler wants truck drivers to describe their ride. The holding company, which operates as Hendrickson International, makes truck and trailer suspension systems and auxiliary axle systems for the commercial heavy-duty vehicle market. The Hendrickson stamping division makes truck bumpers and stamped components. Hendrickson's spring division manufactures steel flat-leaf and parabolic taper-leaf springs. The company sells to OEMs in Europe and Latin America, as well as Australia, Japan, and the US. Chairman, President, and founder John Boler bought Hendrickson International in 1977 and continues to own the company.
