Those look like the trails up in Falls Village on Adam's land. If people can bend frames on jeeps... i'm sure claytons long arms can bend... especially on some of those psycho buggy built trails up there. Remember Clayton used Rockkrawler lift parts for his kits for a long time. I plan on getting the rockkrawler long arms in the near future... can't beat the price and they are on their 3rd generation long arm kits, which means they keep improving. I haven't heard anyone complain about their new X Factor kits on the boards yet.

You order a system from him and he used RK parts... plain and simple. I'm pretty sure that he is using his own coils/parts now because people heard he was using rockkrawler parts... not including the long arms themselves. You can order the long arms from him and then go out yourself and buy skyjacker, RE, Rustys, or whoevers lift parts you want. I highly doubt Clayton used to ask people which lift coils/parts to use with his systems... I've never seen that YJ or TJ before. Yea thats JPs ZJ buggy in the background on the 2nd pic. TNT's long arm kit is supposedly beefier than Claytons for virtually the same price. The cleareance is better and the belly pan they use is massive. Rockkrawlers belly ban looks nearly exactly the same as TNT's and can be had for $600 total with the long arms and belly pan... which is still $300 less than TNT's or Clayton's kit. If you break anything on Rockkrawler's they will fix it for you free of charge... just like Clayton's I assume. Both shops are within hours of where I usually wheel... So why not try Rockkrawler's with people saying good things about it?

So it would either be 7 arms on a TJ/WJ/ZJ/LJ/YJ or 3 arms on an XJ without coils in the rear... 7 arms w/ coil conversion in the rear.

TNT Customs is located in Cheyenne, Wyoming... approx 27 1/2 hours or 1,800 miles from Fairfield, CT. Clayton is located in Waterbury, Connecticut... approx 45 minutes or 35 miles from Fairfield, CT. Rockkrawler is located near Poughkeepsie, New York... approx 1 hr 1/2 or 70 miles from Fairfield, CT. Any questions?

Yeah. Is any of the stuff on my Jeep now, local? Doesnt matter to me. A little shipping is easily worth the TNT kit to me. They have arguably the best XJ system on the market and i have yet to hear anything 'bad' about them. Fact is, theres nothing wrong with a clayton kit, but its just something different than i want, Clayton arms are beefy so you can hit shit with them and not worry, TNT arms are still beefy, but also up and out of the way Im not using this as a clayton-TNT war, god knows me and jeff have that covered lol, but shipping or locale shouldnt have much to do with a purchase considering 9/10 of everything on my jeep was not purchased locally as is, and i could say the same for most everyone else we know

Spank me asked "but i dont no what TNT does if u bend a arm." I was simply showing how far TNT is compared to Clayton/Rockkrawler... "If" something was to break, sending back/receiving a part would take time and you would be on your own in replacing it.
