Off Road Evolution is in Fullerton and I would go to them if you really can't do the install yourself. But, I really would recommend that you at least give it a look to see if you can. Here is a write-up I've done that will help you out:

Thanks, Offroad Evolution is actually really close to me. They are who quoted me $440 for the install plus $95 for alignment!! i think i might grab a buddy and tackle it!! :thinking:
That's your best bet man, I just recently installed a Teraflex 2.5 inch coil lift and it took me and a friend the better part of a day.

^^^ agreed with a basic lift you only need a couple hand tools at the most, (mostly 19mm) pluse it is a very good way to learn your rig! as for an alignment, depends if you are changing draglink and such yes if not you should be ok without one, there is also a write up on how to do it yourself (its pretty much just getting the wheel stright as you are not messing with your tie rod)!
Here is a link to my DIY front end alignment write-up:

As you will see, unless you install new adjustable components, the only thing you can do is recenter your steering wheel. Due to the steering system design, there will be no need to touch your toe. Caster and camber cannot be adjusted.
It's easy. Or find someone local to help you.
^^^ agree.
OP i would try and tackle it yourself. it should only take a few hour at least if not a better part of the day to do it since it will be all new to you
noticed your running the teraflex 2.5 and the bilstein 5100 shocks! that's what i am going to install! how do you like it? i was in between the bilstein 5100 and the fox 2.0 but went with the bilstein.
Hmmmmmmm, your location says SoCal :thinking:. LoL, thanks good idea!
