What are you looking to do? Lift? Labor or parts? Or both?

I've done everything to my Jeep and helped others. If it's a 2-3 inch lift you want, the install should be straight forward.

I'll be happy install a 2 or 3 inch lift for you is you want to pay someone. But I would recommend you install the lift yourself to get the satisfaction that you are building it up

Here is a pic of my Jeep. See my signature for details.

I may have to look in to the rear bumper. But I'll still have to pay a new price for a tire carrier.
