it's simple, no time nor desire. The jeep isn't a project it's already clean and in top notch shape. I just don't feel like drilling and mounting I'd rather have it done, period. I just didn't know what type of shops handle this stuff and which don't.Originally Posted by claygrassmann
dude im in the army and if you are gonna be an officer good luck on ever finding time to work on your jeep your self when you finally make it to the real army, i mean im betting since you just had your knee opened up that you will end up med boarding cause the army will just ruin your knee even more, i had great knees when i got in seix years ago now i can barely carry my two year old up the stairs, but you also said that you are up doin that stuff 5 days a week, what about the other two? im sure that you could find a buddy that you go to school with that is into jeeps to help, most army guys i kno love that stuff, if you have access to an army base go to the car care center, those guys are great and can give you a hand, they helped me rebuild the front suspension on my liberty the other day, so help is out there you just have to do some of the looking for yourself, leg work is part of having a jeep, no pun intended

You're taking things a little too serious champ. I don't expect you to sell your Jeep. It's just when it comes to aftermarket type stuff, you're going to spend a pretty penny most of the time to have someone else install it. But if you don't mind spending it, go for it. Originally Posted by 11Past9

And to say busy people can't have Jeeps is a joke and I NEVER implied that. I work 50 hours a week with an hour drive each way, go to school full-time, and manage to spend time with my girlfriend and have a social life while building a Jeep.

Theres a few ways to aquire what you want here, order parts you like (just saw your other thread) and ask a decent corner mechanic to install it all. You could also find a 4x4 shop that has experience and knowledge in the type of work you want done. You could also find a local Jeeper or club and ask for assistance... this is common and the way i would suggest... you'd be amazed at what we are willing to do for some pizza and a few cold ones.
I can see your reasoning for not wanting to do these modifications yourself.. you have a full plate.

Personally I don't trust shops for jobs I can do mainly because I'm 17 and most mechanics think I don't know anything so they keep trying to get more money out of me after I tell them exactly what I want done.
