I say do the leveling kit yourself. I did my 2 1/2" level myself when I put my new shocks and struts and it was a piece of cake. Then use the rest of your money towards payments

 

Since you have the cash, split it 50/50. Do whatever mod(s) you want to with as much as 1/2 of your $$, then knock off 3 months payments? Just an idea...

 

Pay it off cause if they repo it or you have to sell it you will never get that $1000 you just dumped in mods back.

 

Installing the Leveling kit is beyond easy, I did it and while I am handy and can build you a house I've never spent any time working with trucks...

 

I will probably do the leveling kit in a freinds garage if i can find a write up of how to? is there one? and maybe ill take some christmas money and do the exhaust and get this thing paid off

 

You can look up on YouTube how to change struts on a pickup. That's all you have to do but when you remove it you bolt the leveling kit ontop of that assembly. That's what I did and it worked great

 

Ill do some research tomorrow on the struts, hopefully i wont need a coil spring compressor. If i dont ill probably do it myself. Thanks for all advice and still wanting more.

 

PAY IT OFF!!!!

I miss the days of no payment and you will feel so good knowing the truck is all yours. After that, take your payment amount and just keep putting that into savings. When you are comfortable with that amount, start the mods. Mods are addictive!!! And this way, if Life gets into the way (car wreck, layoff from job, big screen tv takes a dump) you have money to handle what life throws your way. Just my opinion.

Otherwise, I can meet you at the casino later, then we can party it up downtown with drinks on the house for everyone, and we will finish the night off throwin dollar bills at naked ladies!!!!!!!

It's your life, live it......

 

I got the strut compression tool but ended up not needing it... Rented the tool from AutoZone.

 

Im still considering doing the leveling kit myself and call it a day. If i can do it for 180$ with an aligment and the truck will look 40x better why not. Then payoff here I come. Might just pay off tho. Keep it comin
