Message:
i recently bought a set of djm 2in control arms with toxic shocks, summit rear blocks 3in, and belltech shocks for the rear. i dont know how to put this stuff on so i called a shop were a guy who does dakota work is employed. the guy said that he can do the front control arms and shocks for $250 a side!!!!!! outrageous i thought, then he said $130 for the back, then he'll prolly charge me another few hundered for a suspension check!! what is a reasonable price to get this stuff put on? he also said that I NEED shims or wedge plates to adjust the rear pinion angle since the drop is 3 inches, so i got some from summit for $40. then i was told by someone else that they might not be nesecary, any help would be appreciated, i dont want my drop to turn out to be the worst mod i ever got.

To put it simple this guys trying to scam you. My drop cost me about $400 and I had almost the entire suspension replaced. I even had to buy new end links for the swaybar because they broke. Find someone else or do it yourself.
