Place to install leveling kit in DFW?

I read some threads but I want to know some guys who've gone to a shop around DFW and had it done?

Thanks.

Yeah, I have no doubt I have the ability to do it. I actually race motorcycles with CMRA (not sure if you know them) and do all my own wrenching. My problem is that I really don't have the time (I travel 3 weeks out of the month), space (damn suburbs) and tools (really just jacks and stands).

Ford dealerships can do installs, and the front wheel alignment that will be needed afterward.

What part of DFW? I live in N. Ft. Worth and installed a AS 2.5" leveling kit about a month ago with my son.
There is a shop off of 377 that told me if I bought the kit and brought it to them it would be about $150-200 to install. They don't do alignments, I went to another shop down the street for that.
I decided to do it and it took about 2 hrs. ( some of the time was going to get a bigger breaker bar, we broke my small one.)

I had my lift done at mikes offroad in Haltom city. I dont really recommend them as i had a bad experience but they could definately get you taken care of install and alignment.
