I went to the local shop today and got a quote.
What i got:

Fabtech 6", Pro Comp M/T, Pro Comp Xtreme Alloy 7189 Wheels, Mount & balance, Alignment and Install. Out the door price is $4650.00 +Tax. This sound like a good price?

Flex

 

Pro Comp M/T - a piece $150 = $600
Pro Comp wheels - a piece $125 = $500
Alignment = $50
Mount & Balance = $40
Lift = $1,600

Total so far... $2,790. Labor should not be nearly another $2,000. Seems a little high to me.

 

4wheel parts has the fabtech system listed for $2976.87 also i believe the system comes with new rear leaf spring, i dont trust blocks, never have......never will, a buddy of mine had a lift on his yota with blocks while off roading the block broke bed dropped down on the tire and wasnt pretty at all he needed new bed panel and a new tire.

 

No fabtech kit comes with leaf springs. The only lift companies with aftermarket leaf springs are skyjacker and BDS. There may be some others but those are the 2 major ones.

Well, just for a basis of comparison, I put a procomp 6" lift along with 35"x12.5" nitto terra-grapplers with 18"x10" KMC XD series rims on my truck and with the cost of those, plus mounting and alignment and renting a stall in my local hobby shop for a lift, tools etc. to do it myself I spent a grand total of $3310.00.

I would expect to spend about $1000.00 in labor (at least that's what I got quoted) but anything beyond that... too much in my opinion. In fact, I thought that was too much which is why i did it myself and I'm glad I did because now I KNOW it was done right the first time. But in retrospect, I wouldn't do it for less than a grand myself.

 

where can u get pro comp mt for 150$? what size?

 

OK i did some figuring
Pro-comp 17" 7189 Rims: 4 x $185 = $740
Pro-comp M/T 35x12.50 Tires: 4 x $230 = $920
Fabtech 6" Lift: "$1600.00"
Alignment: $50
Mount & Balance: $50
Total: $3360.00
So almost 1300 in labor, but the good thing in these guys are fast service 2 days max, they eat,sleep, and breath F series trucks. They also have racing trucks, 2 F150s a 250, and a ranger (prerunner)

 

Have you thought about doing it yourself? If so, check this out.

 

I had but i dont wanna screw something up and then have to pay more to fix it.

 

Had my lift done for $3600 total. Don`t know the breakdown. Local 4x4 shop did mine. Took it in at 8 am and they had it done by 6pm (1 day).

Fabtech basic 6"
Pro Comp wheels 1079
BFG A/T T/A`s 315/75x17
Alignment
Mount & Balanced

 

i got quoted 4300 for a 6 inch fabtech with coilovers, 36 inch irok tires and 20 inch akuza chrome rims. everything installed and ready to go... wish i had the money though

 

That sounds like a sweet deal!! Money ? ME TOO

 

no more than $3200 for the lift tires and wheels.

 

yeah it is really good, but yeah it is a money issue why does it have to cost so damn much??
