i just want to see it on they re website, so if i go to a shop i can say " give it to me for $1200 and install it ", instead of having them price match ebay , which many shops wont do lol

either Rough Country or Pro Comp. i m leaning towards Pro Comp though, more ppl on here have it and not too many problems. plus they have a sweet skid plate lol. and now that the price is about the same, seems better to go with the bigger name company.

ya the pro comp install is a lot easier....I don't think its a good thing how much cutting you have to do for the rough country lift.

im assuming you installed your lift ? P/C stage 1 ?

how hard was it, any special tools ?

i really wanna try and i have a few buddies that would help, but we never installed a lift and we only have jacks/ jack stands and hand tools, can it be done ?

Well i helped a shop do it for a little and it didn't seem to hard to do man if you have any kind of mechanical skills you and a few friends should be able to tackle it in a weekend.

Cant be that hard, its basically a bolt on kit. Not sure if you have to do any minor cutting but its just replacing whats already there with different parts. You dont have to compress the springs either, so your good on that part.

idnc, just read the instructions, it seemed really simple when i read the rancho lift instructions. if it wasn't for my dad i would have installed the lift on my own. and the instructions should tell you any tools you will need. i would vote for doing it on your own and learn as much as you can.

rough country is junk IMO. take a look at the kit and compare it to a decent kit~very cheap. go with the pro comp--hands down.
