Upgrading a short arm kit?
How much would it be money wise and labor wise to change my short arm lift to a long arm kit? Im sitting 3" on 31's.

The price can range a ton depending on what brand you go with and where you go to do it. The best way to try and answer that is for you to first figure out what lift you want. The prices can vary a good bit from brand to brand. By doing that way you'll be able to itemize the lift from the labor.
And, I'm willing to bet that you'll find someone on here that will be able to help out and save you some money on labor. Shop labor to install a lift can sometimes be outrageous. But make sure you find someone who has a little credibility. You don't want some tool bag trying to make a quick buck who might trash your rig.

Most kits are for 4" of more of lift, that also depends on what kind of design you want to go with. Sounds like you need to research long arms and designs a little more.

Would do it myself... wasn't sure if you can upgrade from a short to long arm to be honest. I was just wondering on general price range if its even possible to extend my 3" short arm to a long arm.
