I live in Stratford and unfortunately I don't know of any off-roading trails in CT. No legal ones anyway. Do either of you guys know of a place here in CT that installs lift kits??? I want to get a six inch suspesion lift for my truck and haven't found a place yet that will do the install.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 16-Jul-02 AT 11:46 PM (EST)]if you get the lift at a local store they always know guys that will put the lift on for you.where do you plan on buying your lift at?.i know a guy thats down my way that could do it but it would take him about a week to do it .he only does a little at a time and works kinda slow but he does it right.

There is a place in Bridgeport called G-Force Performance that I might buy it from, or I will get it mail-ordered or on-line. G-Force won't do the install though. Who/where is the the guy that you know that does installs. Do you know if he's done any Super Duty lifts before?

Thanks,
Rich

I'm also in CT, i live in Berlin. A bunch of friends have our own little club and all we pretty much do is offroad in the portland fair grounds (which can get pretty crazy after it rains). We also go on some trails that are owned by a friend of a friend .

Hey Rich, I live in Stratford as well. There is a place on Rt7 going up towards Danbury that I think does the installs for lift kits. There is a guy that works there that has a new Superduty that has it lifted and some 35's on it. It looks really nice. I will see if I can get the name when I go up there next.
