    Any recommendations in the Worcester to Framingham area?

    Looking for a place to a) purchase and install a lift kit and b) not screw me over.

    Thanks

    Why don't you try putting in the lift kit yourself? I'm ordering one soon and that's what I'll be doing. I've never done it before but it seems straightforward and there's tons of great info here.

    3 Reasons... 1) Not mechanically inclined 2) No tools 3) It's my daily driver, if anything should happen to it, I'd be taking Uber to work... If I had someone local to help me that knew what they were doing, I'd def attempt it.

    I'd be willing to help but I don't know how much help I would be since I've never done it before. Maybe I'll get my lift on before we do yours. What are you looking to do?

    We do not sell lift kits, but i can help point you in the right direction or contact headstrongoffroad.com @HeadStrong Off-Road and they have great customer service. We are fair on hourly rate and will install lifts. We are in the Northampton, MA area and have had people from eastern, central, amd northern berkshire county come out for service

    Thank you so much for the recommendation. If I get people in your area looking for installs I will let them know. If you want to PM me your shop information I can keep it for reference. :cheers:
