Shops that do Lifts?

Hi,
Which shops install leveling kits? So far I have just come across 1 place, which is local 4WD shop in town. Is there any others out there that do lifts. Im just shopping and comparing now. Best quote for a 2.5 leveling kit (Daystar) has been $420 which includes allignment.

Thanks
BFX4

My local Tire/Muffler/Alignment shop does most of my work now! All three of the guys are pretty sharp and know what they are doing!

$420.00 seems HIGH to me!

$125.00 Daystar 2.5 Leveling Kit
$60-80 Installation
$60-80 Alignment

These are MAX costs!

I paid $320.00 way back when, when I had mine installed but the Daystar was just out on the market and was going for $250.00!

I just had the Daystar 2.5 installed on my 04 screw 2 week's ago for $400.00,including alignment.That was the best price out of all the shops i checked with in my area.I'm not totally satisfied with it though,I love the look and it handle's allright but it made the front end to stiff when you hit a bump it jar's you.I'm thinking of trying a better shock's to see if that will help.
