Details for a lift - Rough Country 6.5 in long arm

[4.3LXJ]

6.5" with 35s can be a good combo. With 4.5" backspacing you will rub when at full turn on the lower link. 24 hrs is way too ling. They should be able to do it in 12 hrs if they are set up for it. If they have a hoist, then 8 hrs. 1000 per axle is average for a gear change with lockers in the deal. Otherwise, too steep. I would add, that since you
are in the rust belt, that is with no broken bolts due to rust.

I paid about 350 to have the lift installed and it took about 6 hours, that was a 4.5" RC lift with AAL. They had a lift and ONE strut compressor. lol

It took about 10 hours to install the 4.56 gears in my D30 and C8.25, but we had to redo a couple of things which probably added a couple of hours waiting for additional parts. Also the master rebuild kit didn't come with C8.25 axle bearings, and I didn't see much since in doing all that work without replacing those as well, so we had to wait on the bearings to be delivered from the parts place. I worked a deal for the gear install, but it would have been about 350 an axle, NOT including gears, master rebuild kit, or lockers.

I paid 508 for parts, plus another 35 for bearings. So maybe 1300 to have gears installed when you add in fluid, etc...

I have to have it done again when I get the lockers.
