Lift install shop in Raleigh area

[k_os]

Since I don't have all the tools needed for this or the patience/knowledge/time. Do you guys any realiable/affordable shops in the area to get this done.

He's in Apex. Small shop, but he does good work. Tell him Rich sent ya over..

Which vehicle are you lifting? and could this be a wrench-a-thon? I'd be willing to help.

I'm lifting my FJC.

Coilovers up front and coils in the rear - should be an easy job unless you need a press to assemble the new front setup.

How much lift are you putting on, and who makes it?

 

[k_os]

I'm torn between ToyTec 3" Spring lift or the more expensive OME 3" lift.. I might end up waiting a little bit and going for the OME lift.

You'll need a press for the OME kit front coils, unless someone has some beefy coil compressors. So a shop or at least remove them, take them to a shop for OME assembly, then reinstall.

Go with the OME, you won't regret it. I got my OME kit installed at 55 automotive in Apex. They did the complete install for $270 without an alignment. They did an excellent job and got it done in a few hours.

You could always road trip to ATL and we can help. It would be good to see you again! We've done about 4 of these and are getting pretty good at it! I imagine we'll have a wrenching day in the next few weeks. I need to replace my springs since I mistakenly got medium instead of heavy.

Oh, and I vote for OME, but that's cause I am biased...
