Seattle-ish area mechanics?

First post after my "I'm new here" offering.

I'm looking into a lift, either OME or 5100's, but I have little mechanical skills, tools, or time. I'm interested in feedback or suggestions from others in the general Seattle area for shops that can do installs even if I may order the hardware from another source.

 

Im interested in what you find. My research has pointed to MulenExpedition Outfitters but I have no experience with them.

 

I can certainly offer any knowledge you may need on the subject should you take the project on yourself (common and rather simple even for newbies, I did it). These trucks are rather easy to work on, would've had mine done in 4.5 hrs had I not had to wait for parts. That was my first time working on something that substantial and I did it with a neighbor that is super mechanically inclined. I did however read up on it a lot beforehand and can pretty much tell you everything that is involved and how to go about doing it.

I would suggest making a friend on the forums that has done a lift before and have them help you out for a price (case of beer and a pizza or something). I'm in Seattle during the summer but, I may not be the best person to work with as I mooched some key tools to do mine (floorjack, jack stands, impact gun) but most of it I had on hand.

 

Call Tor Slinning of Torfab he's awesome just had him install a front Elocker on my 2014 Tacoma. 206-659-8677

 

When I was looking, Michael's Toyota of Bellevue quoted me around $430 before tax to install 5100's with eibach's and AAL in the back.

 

Found great shop in Snohomish called Honest Trans & Auto Repair 425 344-0687. Their rate is $75/hr. They just installed my Wheeler's 5 leaf pack for 1hr labor. They also do struts.

 

yes Michaels Toyota of Bellevue will do it. Mule Expedition Outfitters in Issaquah is great! I have heard other people say Auburn Auto Repair and Offroad.

Plenty of people around here to help you do it yourself too!

 

I am about to have a 3 car garage at my house with almost all the tools needed for this job. I work for food and beer. I know plenty of people that will come help out.
