Just ask. In todays world its no secret.

I am one of the owners of Clayton Off Road.

Its Clayton and Adam.

We have a 6000 sq ft shop in Waterbury CT.

All our welding, manufacturing, and installation in done in house.

Powder coating is done in Hamden CT.

Laser cut parts come from Torrington CT.

Steel is order from USA companies, but they do get some items from Canada. This varies per shipment, and we have not had any issues between the two.

Springs from CA,
Brakelines from CA,
Johnny joints are from CA, aka Currie, but their forged housings are made in China. :-( Sorry

some of the nuts and bolts may be world wide, but for the most part is USA.

Adam
Clayton Off Road Mfg.

How about OME? I pretty sure they are a subsidiary of AEV so would they be American made as well?

It is going to be hard to know for most things.

Made in the USA isn't always what it seems. It could be "Made in the USA" with parts from China.

Thanks to the guys from Clayton for disclosing where the parts came from. It is nice to know that they build using mostly US steel and parts.
