That toca looks really good that high

Did those black piston/shocks replace the upper A arm??

How much lift is that?

Yes the A-Arms are removed...weird setup!

That is about 7.5" of lift...Still has another 2" of lift in the SAWs, however, be needs to get some new spring packs as his are old and sagged.

Nice!

That's a job well done, but the real question is after the installation did you get to run over all those BMW's in some of the last pictures?

That truck looks great! How much did he spend on the lift including labor?

That is a great statement, Mike. Most companies have forgetten that the customer is the most important person in any organization. People will pay for good service. You will go far if you stick to that way of thinking.

Nice lift

That's some sweet work you do. I only wish you lived closer to St. Louis.

Let's see...Los Angeles to Peoria...that's only 5.5 hours...

How much would a setup like that cost?

That setup with install, labor, mounting, balancing, alignment, and parts ran about $2200.00

Mike- you mentioned he needed new spring packs-- so is he going to keep the blocks after getting new rear springs? The truck looks great, except for those rear blocks.
