    Hi All, Just purchased a Westcott Designs lift kit for my 2020 Tacoma TRD Pro! But not having any luck finding a shop that's willing to install it. Does anyone happen to know of a reputable shop in the Northern Virginia area?

    You could use Trick Trucks, they aren’t too far from northern VA and they have several locations. They aren’t the best but they’re fine and all the reputable off road shops I know don’t install customer supplied parts.

    Most of these shops are charging a insane amount of money for installs and charge more for customer provided parts!
    I will never do that!

    Never said you did... But unless you have personal experience with what Scott at OCD charges, I wouldn't imply that he overcharges for his work.

    I recommended a shop. You quoted me and said:

    "Most of these shops are charging a insane amount of money for installs and charge more for customer provided parts!"

    How does that read to you?

    Not referring to that shop. Was a generalization for "most shops". No experience with that shop nor have I heard of them.

    Not trying to cause any confusion.

    Hello everyone, just moved to NOVA from California where I built out quite a few TW member vehicles in addition to Landcruisers, 4Runners, etc. Well versed in OME, King, Fox, Bilstein, Total Chaos, SPC, Deaver, etc. I’m a professional helicopter pilot/Toyota nut. Everything is by the book, methodical, torqued to spec. I can bring my tools to your house and build the truck in your garage.

    Have you posted in the NOVA thread? Have a feeling you might get a hair more response there. Where in the NOVA are you located?
