Lift Install - This week?!

I bought a lift for my truck, now I need to install it. Would like to get it done this week.

Any suggestions in DFW?

Icon extended travel coil overs with remote reservoir
Icon rears, also remote resi
All Pro leaf pack
UCA's
etc.

It should a direct bolt on.

Don't have the tools or space to do it myself. Thought about trying to organize something, but need it done during the week; most of us are busy weekend this time of year.

Yelp seems to recommend Dallas Suspension Alignment Frame Co, but I don't know anyone personally.

Thoughts?

 

Pretty similar to my setup, I'm in East Tawakoni but have my compressor at my parents so I'm temporarily air tooless. It can be done with hammer, hand tools jack, jack stands and another hammer. Where in Dallas are you.

 

Near Northpark Mall, 75@ NW HWY.

 

I had Dave from trailworx fabrication install my lift for me at an awesome price. Hes a really nice guy and will hook you up. Give him a call. Hes located in dfw area

Alright, thanks I'll give him a call.

 

Also if Dave can't fit you into his schedule try Tandem Auto. They were at the TTR meeting last week and said they would off a discount. Looking at their facebook page they have experience doing it so you don't have to worry about some new tech learning on your rig.

 

I ended up using Tandem Auto, and was very happy with the process. Their prices was very competitive, and the timeline was exactly what I wanted. The truck was finished yesterday, and I picked it up this morning. Quality of work seems excellent, and everyone there was super friendly. No complaints at all.

 

Good to hear, its nice to know that sponsors aren't just paying lip service

 

I saw this post when I was looking for someone to do my lift. I had Tandem Auto install my lift today and they were awesome! I hung around and chatted with them during the install, and they are great guys!

 

That's two TacomaWorld types that have used them and been happy.

 

did you guys purchase the lift kits there and the install? if so how much, I may go there as well this week.

 

I purchased mine from a member here, but I know they sell lifts.

 

They sell Toytec lifts. Got my BOSS kit from them. Installed with LR ucas, around 2k. They will be getting their own alignment machine soonish. Next month or so I think.

 

How are you liking that boss kit?

 

Love it so far. Much better ride than stock. Haven't had a chance to go off-road, but it makes hopping curbs much smoother!

 

Who did your alignment? I've been talking with Pablo at Tandem to get a Boss kit installed myself, but as of now they still don't have an alignment machine. Apparently they've been getting mixed results with the people they've outsourced the alignment to, so he suggested I either wait a month or more for them to get their machine installed or they could do the lift only and get the alignment done at the shop of my choosing.

They're on the complete other side of town from me, so I was really hoping for a one stop shop but it doesn't look like that's in the cards (at least for now).

 

I did Firestone, lifetime for 180ish

 

I drove the 45 min back as they are across DFW from me too, and had an NTB do it locally. Would've rather had Pablo do it, but didn't have the option then. I didn't know they were getting an alignment machine until after I was already there and my truck was half way done, otherwise I would've waited. Never been a big fan of the "big name" shops...

 

Sounds about like what I'm looking at, either finding somewhere on that side of town or driving 45 minutes back to Plano and finding someone over here. I've used the NTB at Plano Parkway and Preston in an emergency, but I think it's going to be a coin toss with any of the chains as to what type of service you get. Toyota of Plano will price gouge the hell out of me and it looks like the 4 Wheel Parts out here has a 2+ week wait time, so it looks like I might be better off just waiting and hoping Tandem gets their own setup soon.

 

That's the exact NTB I used, lol. They were able to fit me in at short notice, so yeah. Like I said, we didn't know I'd need to find an alignment place so I didn't have a choice. And yeah, not a big fan of ToP.
