Installed the Clayton 4 piece long arm kit today. Thanks to Bubba for all the help both in the insane run to Clayton's shop in CT and with the install today.
We got back from CT around 9pm Friday night due to traffic in NJ. Then I got called into work at 1:30am Sat morning and worked til 7am. Bubba and my neighbor Bill came over as I was running out of steam and helped me finish.
After we completed the long arm kit we tried it out. The jeep handles totally different in an awesome way. I am really impressed with the difference in handling and the issues it corrected.

I don't mean to rez an argument, but...
Olympus' LED bars are IP67 compliant, which means they're sealed and pass every durability test except submersion to 200m. They told me they would pass that test if they had somewhere to do that test.
Rugged is also a whole other price bracket. That's like comparing Zone to Clayton.

Yep. Nobody has told me anything that's actually wrong with them except, "I don't like them," or, "Someone I know doesn't like them." For the price, I still plan to buy from them, assuming Nick gets his light bar.
