    just moved to SoCal, and want some shop suggestions for a TOTAL CHAOS LT kit with new front fenders and either shock relocators, or a bed cage for the rear

    I don't pay anyone, I do it myself. A good front LT kit for 4WD with extended axles will run you at least $5k and I would imagine another $1500 - $2k to install.

    Fucking look it up
    I won't throw out exact prices but for full long travel front and rear your probably looking at around 10k that's for the cheaper end of kits unless you do your own fab work if you just want front end LT and don't want to install it expect 4k easy

    That sounds about right. What kit would they use? A bed cage (if done right) would cost more than a shock relocate.

    They would all be about the same price, +/- $1k .. there is also that many different kits to choose from.

    The people at TOTAL CHAOS put me in contact with DMZ, still waiting for a quote. since this is my everyday driver should i stick with the shock relocators or go with a bed cage?
