no claytons coils are different than RE's. your low end stuff like rancho, skyjacker rough country tuff country and a few others all get their coils from pretty much the same place.specialty places like deaver that make custom high end coils make their own, deaver is all in house (i've seen it) they make all their springs to your specs. that's why they have a very limited line of off the shelf coils they offer. and i will tell you they are worth every penny, i love my deavers with not one complaint for the last 3 yrs. i can't remember if clayton is in house or outsourced but i know that all their coils are a 1 off coil like TnT's and deavers are.

lol, Well IDK what I want to do with it at this point. I think I may just remount my shocks to eliminate my bottoming out issues, then cage it, and make tube flares. then beat the **** out of it and roll it a few times and go from there....
How Many FT of tube did it take to do Josh's cage? and how much weight will it add? would it cause me to sink a little lower then I am now with a cage/spare and other BS in it? maybe .5"-1"?

and josh's used 140ft total 60ft of hrew and 80ft of DOM. weight added wasn't much 100-200lbs maybe, not 100% sure we forgot to weigh it prior to the build. but i know him and i carried the whole cage around no problem. wasn't really heavy. so i'll say maybe .5" 1" if you get crazy with triangulation LOL

well HREW you can get for cheap anytime at wasatch steel, then just buy some DOM one or two sticks at a time until you have enough.
and if the bender was mine i'd lend it to ya, but since it's not mine and i just use it you'll have to settle for helping
