    $500...Jesus!!! Just installed mine myself this past Sunday. Took 6 hours by myself. If I had just one friend to help me, I could have done it in 3.5 to 4 hours. Glad I know how to do install. FWIW, I had done a lift install myself once before, but if you read the write ups on here and do it your self, it's easy.

    I am a disabled vet and not as strong in the back as I used to be. I would love to do it myself but it's not really an option anymore. I posted on the forum about help but I guess there isn't many members in my area. (Southern West Virginia)

    bump for somebody in the area to help save him a few hundred bucks. if i wasn't 6-8 hours away i'd come help you. i installed mine last year with no experience and pretty much no help so i learned all the things not to do.

    Just got back from the Toyota dealer and found out the install cost is going to be more than the $500 price they initially told me about. I think there was a mix up about what kind of lift I have to be installed. $958!!! I am looking for alternative options now.

    Good luck and most definitely don't pay that much for install!

    I make a yearly trip to Phoenix (Sun City) to visit my uncle every January. I wish my wife would agree to move out there.
