    Where did you get it done at, if you mind me asking?

    I live in Gresham and am looking for a good lift shop.

    I have RC 6 inch lift. Kit and install is $2500
    SPC UCA Adjustable (self install) is $500
    RC front shock to replace spacers is $500
    Alignment is $200

    Got it done right and happy, so do the math

    My 35's is another $2000IMG_2080.jpg

    Either way you look at it, there's some spending.

    I have yet to drive in a same size lift to compare the difference in driveability, comfort etc but here's my thoughts.

    Whichever lift you get, it will cost you.
    If you are off-roading, that could be a difference in durability in kits. I won't.

    Then there the other little things you have to buy.

    Is there a lift that auto correct Camber? I don't think so, so at the end, an adj UCA is required and you spend regardless

    Unless you looking for a soft riding 6 inch lift kit, well not!!!! It's going to drive like a truck-truck once you lift it, and to get it right, $$$$ is involved.
