Default Lift Kit Installed In Midland/Odessa

I was just wondering if anyone has installed their own lift kit in the Midland/Odessa area. Or if you had it done professionally, who did you have do it, and what were their install rates. It'll probably be at least a month or so before I do the lift, but I'm just looking to see what my options are right now.

I've always done my own work. Not sure who I would even call if I wanted a shop to do it.

I had mine done by West Texas Off Road in San Angelo. 2.5" Teraflex coil kit on a 12 JKU. I think I paid around $1100 for the kit and install. Have not had any issues. Fair price and the owner is a good guy. His main business is hydraulic steering, "Redneck Ram".

Thanks for all the replies. I would love to be able to do the work myself to save the cash for other mods and what not but unfortunately I live in an apartment and don't have any tools/space to do it. So ill probably have to leave the suspension stuff to the pros and just stick to the stuff I can/have done like the bumpers and lights. At least this will give me some people to check out to get it done.

Thanks again all
Austin

Did you get the kit with the Teraflex shocks or did you go with the adapters. I'm looking to get this kit but go with bielstien 5100's as I had them on my TJ and loved them just haven't heard much about the Teraflex shocks.
