i believe he meant the $500 was jsut for labor. i got 1.5inch bj spacers and a 2inch AAL and love the setup. its not the softest ride in the world but it works and performs good. i woudl highly recommend it

so the 500 didnt include the lift, wow thats even worse. but it doesnt matter he made a good choice in my opinion by getting one from 4crawler (where i got mine) and do the install himself.. and i understood 500 was for labor but also thought it came with the body lift, but made it sound more like just the BL. oops

Shops have to make money too, if you want to cheap then its all up to you to learn how to do yourself, paying some one to do off road modifications is always going to cost you some coin but that does seem a like a lot of money for that job maybe they have included some hidden costs to make sure everything is correct like gold plated shocks and diamond infused body spacers
