Instalation?

i will be getting my truck lifted and re-geared in a couple of months. i am planning on 3.5 inch spindles, one inch blocks, 3 inch body lift, steering stabilizer and 4:10 gears. The parts will cost me just over a thousand dollars, how much should i be looking to spend for instalation if its all gonna be done at one shop? I know it depends on the shop, but i am looking at a rough estimate. Thanks for any help.

for that much, why not just get a 7.5" fabtech. for the cost you will spend on lifting you will be pretty close to the same of a 7.5"

I'll ask around the shops and see what they quote me. if it is over a thousand then i'll just pay to have the body lift and gears done, and install the suspension myself.

how much do you have to spend?

a 7.5" fabtech is about $1250. i no its more, but a BL installed is about 600-800. and then another 300 or so for spindles, so thats 1100 about. so for 150 bucks more you get all suspension and just installed it yourself.

and i just get really excited talking about lifts so sorry if i feel like im forcing my opinions on to you!

its cool man. I am only willing to spend 2300 without tires, mine are brand new. I need to leave money for books, and christmas stuff, and leave money in the bank for tires when mine wear out.

well say 1300 for lift. 700 for gears. thats still $300 under your $2300 limit. and i think you would be much happier.
