    Looking for a reasonable shop that does lift installs near or in Portland. Looking to get the Eibach stage 2R installed. I hit up Trendsetters that previously installed my lift on my old 2017 Tacoma. They quoted labor to be 1320-1720 + 120 for alignment. That seems highly unreasonable. They also said if I didn't purchase the kit through them then they charge more. Labor rate was 150 per hour and now 200 for it being purchased from another vendor.

    Idk if they’ll install a lift you didn’t buy there but Central 4WD (it’s inside the Baxter’s near Jantzen Beach) is likely to be the most reasonable shop around.

    Bought a rtt from them - great guys. I always wonder how much more shops charge when they have “Overland” in their name though.

    Hit up Les Schwab and they said they won't install lifts unless purchased through them.

    I’ve not worked on a 4th Gen but have installed lifts (recently just put in the Ironman coils I have on now) - have you thought about installing it yourself?

    Yeah, I’ve got too many projects going on right now.
    I got it handled today. Went to legacy automotive. They finished it in 3-4 hrs but charged me for their 5.5 hr quote.
