Hey man, Just saw this thread. The shop here in West Palm where I had it installed charged me $750 including the alignment. I dropped it off and picked it up the same day.
It's a little bit of a drive for you, but it may be worth looking into. PM me if you want any more details on the shop.
Can't wait to see your truck with the lift on...you'll love it.

My shop charged me 300 to install my RCX lift on my 04 Ram, but it was 2wd if that makes a difference. 3-400 for shocks? They take 10 minutes to change? Sounds like shops rob you guys on the east coast.

Ditto what he said, east coast is too expensive for my blood. that comes out to about $500 per hr labor rates.. awsuming they have at least a 30 min minumum..

Yea it seems that way. Another shop I got a quote from wanted $1300! But I have a family friend who's done work on my truck before but he's been out of town so I'm gonna see how much he's gonna charge now that he's back.

Awesome! You're going to love the new stance! What wheels and tires did you end up going with?
