Raleigh North Carolina and surrounding areas

Hello folks, recently moved here to Raleigh area and great to see so many folks from around here. I am planning a trip this December and learned that my stock suspension would not support an RTT. So, I am planning a suspension upgrade on my 2003 Tacoma. I don't have a garage and have not done this scale of a project before. Although, I can overcome both of those to certain extent (can do it in empty space next to our place and get some knowledge from internet/forums), I don't have any time for any errors. I would like to see if I can get some help from fellow members here. So, here are my options:

1. Do it myself with limited means
2. Do it with the help of a fellow member (I can compensate in a means of your choice)
3. Pay a fellow member
4. Pay a shop (last resort)

I really appreciate your feedback.

That works for me Duck Season is still closed that weekend I believe it opens back up the following week so I should be free. Keep me in the loop.

 

Thank you for your reply.

1. I am planning to do a full leaf pack swap
2. I bought his truck from Chicago 4 years ago, but the previous owner kept it with minimal rust. I tried my best too although I lived in North. I should say it is as good as a Southern truck.
3. I live in Lillington, NC. I am willing to travel.
