Default Need help finding lift installer

I live in Washington Mo, looking for someone to install RC BB kit I ordered. Most local shops I've asked say no or too expensive. I'm not confident enough to tear apart and try myself in my garage. If any one has name of local shop in Franklin or STL county area I would appreciate it.

we usually go to Axleboy up in st charles for things my hubby can't do himself. Otherwise, you might try posting a lift party over on midwestjeepthing.com - you supply the pizza and beer and you should be able to get some people to help - I know of a few others in your area - just explain that you are not comfortable doing it by yourself - this way, you can get a chance to get under it and start learning.

have you tried the 4x4 shop between union & washington. When do you want it installed. I have not put one on mine but am pretty good with tools. If you need any help let me know.

Default thanks mikejk

I finally got ahold of GC Offroad there on 47 and he was eager to do it. Actually he's putting it on Sat morn (19th). Charging $250 for install including recentering steering. Kind of steep for a $150 kit, I know, but he's got lots of experience and I've heard good things about him. Thanks for the resonpses.

They are pretty good, I have couple of friends that have had them put on lifts. $250 I think is not to bad for the time its going to take to put it on. Mike

JUst curious if you ever got that lift done. Here is a link to my documentation of installing this lift. There's even pictures Check it out, you may decide to do the lift yourself or with some help from a buddy.

DUH, now I feel stupid. I just seen your post saying you got it installed. Sure you love yours as much as I love mine. Best mod so far for me.
