Body Lift Install...?

I am looking at purchasing the Toytec 1" body lift, but need a shop in the Los Angeles area to install it.

I already have a suspension lift and many of these shops refuse to install a body lift because of the "dangers" of running the combination.

Does anyone know of any.....

Although it may be easy, I rather leave up to the specialist with more experience.

I just did one it is way to easy to pay someone. I just took out all one side of the bolts loosened the other side. Got a floor jack with a block of wood and jacked it in the middle and lifted one side at the time. It didnt even take an hour. Plus i did the steering extension. Its way super easy.

Body lifts are easy to install...but can be scary I guess the 1st time. I did one Saturday on a 3rd gen...2" body lift in about 2 hours.

Want to find a write-up? SEARCH
