You are getting reamed on the labor IMO. What the hell is:

TOYOTA TACOMA 96-04 / TUNDRA 96-06 1" BUDGET $53.00
BOOST?

 

Maybe a rear block? Idk, that is way to much for labor though...

 

Labor is pretty high IMO. Try to negotiate. Worst case they say no.

 

x3

 

Thats a good question. Just got the quote today, going to call tomm on that. I think its a block like u said though. There labor rate is $95 an hour. Whats the going rate?

 

well from what i have heard its a pretty simple install, so you could get labor for about 0$ and some bloody knuckles

 

Thats totally crazy... can you attempt to do it your self? I have never worked on a cars suspension before and I just followed chris4x4's write up for installing my front shocks and stuff and life was good. I ran into a prob here and there but all i had to do was pm chris or another member and it was fixed... a month ago I just even installed a block.

 

I have never attempted shocks/struts or any suspension type stuff. Just afraid i may get in over my head. I dont have a garage or all the tools that may be needed for this job. But, im still researching, this site has definitely helped who knows I may try it.

 

is this a spacer that your planning on using in addition to the 5100s set at 2.5? if so, dont do it. stacking lifts is a big no no
