the pa 3 inch lift is about the best you can get. it has all the brackets and extensions for a complete job. it will take awhile to do yourself but a shop could probably do it for a couple hundred bucks.

If you are going through all that, get the 3". It is very time consuming. I installed it by myself but if you can get help, is better. I used regular tools but if you can get air tools, is better. If you are going to pay a good reputation shop for the installation, it will be more than $200.00.

You can get some beers to refresh from time to time but not much since safety is first and you want to be sure that everything is in place and well tighten.

I am very happy with mine and it's been more that 50K miles.

Good luck.

I am very happy with the Gibson, but after a while you get used to it and not so loud anymore. I will not change it, but add hi performance cats and headers. That will help with the tone.
