    IMHO ORW is pretty expensive, they're all about the sale. I like The Truck Shop. James is cool as hell and really great prices.

    Or you could do it and invite some members to help with the lift. Beer will usually lure em in and there's plenty of experience :thumbsup:

    I vote for "Do it yourself", although if you dont want to, I would take it to James @ The Truck Shop, on Miramar. They are the only person other than me who have worked on my truck. (damn, me for not doing a home alignment, lol)

    What kind of lift are you putting on anyways? Just saying you could save some money and only have to pay for mounting balancing and alignment

    If you're swapping out for new coilovers, its pretty straightforward. Set up a mod day with some local members (most take beer as payment), and it'll get done in no time. I think the best bet for mounting and balancing is discount tire. They have a lifetime balance and rotation for around 60 bucks.
