Well I'm fairly new to the forum and to my 2011 JK. Here's my dilemma...I just bought a Teraflex 3" lift kit with full 8 flexarms (short) and a set of Bilsteins, also a front and rear adjustable trackbar. I considered doing the install myself but, I've never done anything like this before, I don't have all the tools I need and it's a little overwhelming seeing all these pieces even after watching tons of videos of the install and reading multiple write ups on it. So.... do I swallow my pride and take it to Desert Rat and let them do the whole deal? (It'll need a full alignment afterwards anyways and they gave me a rough quote of $400 for all of it). OR do I beg some of you guys with experience and maybe some tools and bribe you with pizza and frosty adult beverages for some help? I live out in Vail and have a nice big garage. I'm still waiting on the trackbars but I think they'll be here tomorrow, and I'm pretty flexible with my times. The Jeep is my daily driver though so it'll have to be a one day deal.

 

well first let me just say welcome to the forum and to the club. and to answer your question i would just talk to the local guys they are pretty acknowelgeable about all kinds of different mods. just drop in to the thread we have here is the link for you

Desert Rat is good and they'll definitely do a good job, but I say have a wrench party and save your self the money. Plus its a great way to meet some fellow jeep folks to go on trail rides with.
