    Good idea Mike, I was just thinking of going the B29 side of hatcher instead. Good alternative though. :thumbsup:

    I'd probably just pay lol. That's a lot of work, if you don't have a job though I'd do it personally.

    I have a job but still they charge a lot for labor. Even though it'd be nice to just drop it off and get it back with everything done for me. If I could get some help installing it then I'll definitely "do it myself" lol. I'm changing my coils in the front, adding new UCAs, Dakars in the back and rear built flip up kit with timbren bumps. I think it'd be fun to do but I just wanna do it right. Guess there's a time and place for learning everything! I'm thinking of taking it on base and putting it up a hydraulic lift, wonder if they have tools too

    You have a brand new truck, everything should come off really easily and I'd be willing to be it'd be an easy weekend project. The front end will be super easy and the only tough part would possibly be the rear leafs. But that's usually just a problem when everything is super rusted.

    If you guys could help me that would be awesome! :yay: And hahaha true, I was thinking about that because I thought I saw someone say they worked for cash, parts or beer lol. I can do the cash part! Or if anyone would want some of my old parts I'll be taking off they could have those too! :D I just need to go to green tree and have them get the parts I want up here, I can get my UCAs shipped up for free but the leaf packs are another story. And It would definitely be good to learn! I'll have to let you know when I plan on doing it! Should be within the month, I kept telling myself it'd be soon over the last few months but I kept seeing new info on coils and stuff and couldn't make up my mind
