    A Lift is not real hard to install. What system are you thinking of?

    That part I haven't decided. I'm looking at OME, 5100s, eibach springs. Not sure what I would need to do for the springs. Simple TSB AAL from toytec for rear. I really don't want to spend a chunk of change of UCAs.

    If you are not comfortable doing the work, any competent mechanic can handle those upgrades. It's just swapping out the shocks and springs and inserting an extra leaf. Pretty basic stuff.

    I have a hard time trusting mechanics with something like that. Also don't feel like paying an arm and a leg for something "basic" installed. haha

    That is understandable. They would probably get you for a few hundred. How are you with tools, you think you might want to do it yourself?

    I'm no putz, but I prefer someone that knows what they are doing. I'm sure if I took my time I could. It's just a matter of growing the sack. Still would need alignment after.

    I now the feeling. It took me several years to get the guts to tear my truck apart in the driveway. It was fun, but frustrating at times. I went to Firestone and got the lifetime alignment last year, no matter what I do to my truck they align it for free, it was definately worth it.

    I think I paid $130 a year ago. They do a sale on it once in a while.

    I've had it in twice now. I will probably take it back if I go to Rausch Creek in a few weeks and then in the spring.

    You just missed a great wheeling run in Rausch Creek.

    Some of us stayed on the easier trails. You shouldn't have a problem up there.
