Default Place to Install Lift Kit

I want to install a lift kit on my daily driver, 2007 Z71 Colorado. Im looking into a 4 inch Rancho suspension lift and a Pa 3 inch body lift. Is there any place in south fla that will do this. I called truck and trailer usa and never got a call back, and 4 wheel parts guaranteed me the lowest price but have heard bad things about them.

thanks

chris

Honestly installing a lift kit is not hard. Just give it a full weekend (you can do it in a full day if you work well into the a.m.) I did a body and suspension lift with a jack and stands. CAREFUL!! You dont do it in the garage and the truck wont fit out because its to high lol

I agree with what he said, even though it's an IFS truck. Meaning there are more pieces parts, it is a very simple thing to do. Even with *most* basic hand tools.

Body Lifts are a PITA, but SL's are pretty straight forward. Get on a local chevy forum and I am sure some local guys can even help out. They usually come with instructions so long as you got the tools, you should be all good.
I did my 3" SL on my frontier in about a day...once I got the damn ball-joint seperatred from the spindle.
