COST

THe lift kit was $599.99
Steering stabilizer- $ 35
Shock Upgrade - $25
4 Shock Boots - $12.50
TRac -Bar - $150
PItman Arm -$50
Total= 872.49
But then you still need to buy tires and have a little extra for stuff that breaks, like i went ahead and changed my ball-joints, CV-Joints and axel Shafts, Sealed BEarings,Steering Knuckle. BUt ya thats a ruff estimate of what you looking at
