My bds kit got here and it is freaking going to be sweet. I took a look at the instructions and a little more than I can chew to get it lifted so went to my mechanic in town and he says 4 hours at $65/hour Can to get it done and then align it is this a good price?? I don't think he is asking to much seems okay. Well Tuesday it is going in and can't wait to get it all done up. Hopefully start pricing some new tires next week see what the shops want for some meats |

4 hours is resonable and so is the 65 bucks an hour. If you have done some it takes less time than that but he is pretty close |

Yup, that's reasonable. It's going to be sweet...I am sure you will be pleased. Did you get the Teraflex extended front bump stops? It took me all of about 2 minutes to swap them out using channel locks and a little silicone paste. |

Ordering the teraflex bump stops tomorrow, still debating on the extra rear iso pad. Thinking I might just add it later if the tires rub. The rear of the lift isn't what scares me into doing it myself it is the front of the lift and more just the upper ball joint and the cv boots just don't want to risk ripping any of them putting the lift in. I can't wait to get it lifted it should ride great and by the time I put tires on it will look great. I was also thinking of going with some maxxis tires on stock rims 245/75/16 thinking they will compliment the lift nicely. Need the mt's work in the oil patch see my fair share of mud and rough roads. Modular thanks again man the info has been great. Keep me updated on the diff collar. |
