I had them install the kit + steering stabilizer, mount & balance 4 tires, install my rotors and pads that i had sitting around for $550. The 3" lift came out better than I thought. I got the 31" yokohama geolander tires used off craigslist with maybe 50% tread left.. they're measuring about 30.25". either way, no rubbing so i'm happy.

4 bills is more then fair! I spent 8 hrs installing mine at the shop. it would have been faster but the RUST?!?!?!?!?!?!!! my other Jeeps I lifted were Ca Jeeps they went alot easier. I'd still charge book time with an alignment I'd charge $800 for a AAL kit with shackles $725 for full stacks no shakles.

Relax!!
Let me explain how the internet works. You want to ask a question in a 4yr old thread? PM (private message) the person whom you'd like to speak with. You can post once if you'd like, if nobody replies in 2 minutes, be patient, no need to repeat yourself. Want help from anybody? Post your location in your profile, even if the OP (original poster) doesn't reply, someone else may have an answer. Thank you for your patience.
