Add a leaf or ome install cost in ca

Posted this in general but someone suggested moving this here

Bought a go fast camper and just got quoted 1450.00 to install an add a leaf? It sounded insane to me...

Anyone know what this should cost around sf Bay Area or other california metro?

also thinking of going ome full leaf pack vs add a leaf I'm assuming shop time would be about the same.

Was also thinking maybe just airbags.. no hard core off roading .. just washboard dirt roads.


anyshop recommendations welcome.. north bay or east bay

 

You could do an add a leaf yourself. Not hard at all

 

I live somewhat rural and have an unpaved driveway, no good level spot.. not the best set up unfortunately. I do have the tools and the knowledge but yeah. there's a local shop to me that id likely have do it.

1400 sounds high yes?

 

Yeah, it's stupid high. Do they understand what you're asking them to do? Call around.

 

$1400 is definitely absurd

 

Yeah they seemed to.. I was shocked into silence! Haha

 

That'd be high even it included the parts.

 

That was with parts actually.

 

Where are you located?

 

Agree. Way too high of a quote

 

North bay Petaluma.. point reyes actually.. but Petaluma close

 

There’s definitely members in your area that can help.

ask here too

 

If you’re willing to travel to Newark, PM me. Maybe we can work something out

 

Icon 1.5" AAL ~$214+Tax & $350-$400 max for shop install (remember to have them remove your overloads if you only want 1.5"). Based on my humble experience in the Bay Area & SoCal.

 

I got my lift kit installed from a shop in Santa Rosa called Upgrade and they did it for $500. That was shocks + coil assembly then installed on the truck as well as my 1.5 AAL. They usually cost less than local shops so maybe give them a call.

 

Do it yourself; unpaved driveway, no shade, etc done it all easily all with sciatica

If I can do it so can you!

 

Do the install yourself.
Also I’d suggest the full leaf pack if you can afford it. The AAL still relies on your oem leads and it’ll eventually sag. Especially if you add weight like a gfc and other gear.

 

For reference I'd do it for ya for a case of beer. $1400 is downright insane. I don't even charge that much for full suspension installs front/rear.

 

that’s a good deal! Where at?

 

The kit I got at rogue off road. The shop I got it installed is called Upgrade Tires and Wheels on N Dutton in Santa Rosa
