2" Suspension Lift labor $$ question

Too easy to pay that kind of money for. The directions are usually very straight forward and easy to do. Are you a member of a 4x club? They usually have great folks as members who are more than willing to lend a hand

There are many websites that cover how to install a 2" lift on the TJ. It is not hard to do.

The biggest problem you may run into would concern rusted bolts. If you live in a snow area and they lay salt on the road, you will have a hard time removing bolts. I used a small blow torch to heat up the bolt and then it will come loose.

I suggest you try it yourself.

Thanks, Brad.. I will give it a shot!

I'm not a member of a 4x4 club, and don't know too many jeep owners in my area, but I'm going to give the install a shot myself and hopefully get it done.

Thanks! Pete

id a 2" lift on my 97 YJ. The hardest part was getting the rear crossbar of the mounting bracket on the axle. Had to use a big crowbar. the other problem was mounting the new bracket for it. Had problem getting the bolts in. Make sure you jack the jeep high enough. the rear was easy. but i didnt get the front up high enough to put the new springs in easy. Had to muscle them in. Have fun

Price sounds extremely high to me. It really isn't that hard, and I'd be willing to wager you and a buddy would get it done just fine. But, another idea would be to search out a local Jeep club. I'm sure you'd find quite a few guys with lift installation experience that would be willing to help out. Most work for simply beer and pizza (I do anyway hehehe).
