What'd you pay for your lift?
Trying to get some numbers rearranged for my 6 inch lift tires gears etc etc and was wondering if you guys could just tell me what you paid for your suspension lifts installed.
I called a couple shops and only one would give me an actual price estimate the rest basically told me to screw off unless im buying it right now.

I'm in a kind of frontier boom town per se, so the price may be inflated, but that's the free market.

Don't worry, I can't get the truck in until February. Plenty of time to save up.
Procomp doesn't list one for my truck on their site, so I didn't look at them.
BDS and Fabtech just didn't get the same reviews, both published and personally enquired, as Skyjacker. I've ridden in a few vehicles (mostly Jeep and Dodge) with Skyjacker suspension lifts and have been very impressed with their offroad handling. BDS users complained of shimmies and poor handling, which may be the installer, the lift, or the fussy driver, but BDS was the common denominator.
Edit: BC is expensive and overregulated which will only get worse when the NDP wins the next election. I'd move to Alberta but the hunting there just doesn't compare in terms of terrain, bag limits, and huntable species.

Cheapest 6 inch lift I have seen for this year 4x4 trucks are by zone offroad. They run about 1200-1300 buvks without shipping but I believe they are a vendor on here and were doing a deal on free shipping for members. Heard pretty good stuff about that them too, its what im planning on getting when I get the money
