Default Leveling kit questions, sorry lol

Im going to order a 2.5", $69.95. If i decide to install myself, what all is involved and how long will it take? Or if i decided to get someone to do it and "call me when its done" how much will it cost?

I did mine on my 07 fx4. Took me about 2 hours with the help of a bud and we also had a couple beers in us. Another friend with same truck got quoted 125$ plus 80$ for the kit. Needless to say we did his also.

FYI, this tread is in the 04-08 forum.

The leveling kits these guys are talking about are coilover spacers, won't work on your 95 anyway.

Have fun on the bodylift, they can be a PITA.

Dive into it, you'll learn something.

If you aren't well-equiped you may spend $80 in tools.

I would go with the Bilstein 5100.
