Soon my new tires arrive, followed by spaced rims. Pretty excited.

I bought the level kit from Rough Country directly, and decided to give to my local truck shop because I was far too lazy to work on such a dreary day.
The level took them two and a half hours, and I was charged for every minute of it. Another shop that has been extremely busy offers levelling for $120 flat plus the cost of the kit, while I know I can do it myself in about an hour and a half (at tops).
It was pretty ridiculous looking at a $468.11 labour fee, especially when I had just purchased $1900 in equipment from the shop. I'll never be going there or recommending them again, even for warranty work on it. I'd rather spend my time and money somewhere else or do it myself, even if it was free from the crooks.
