i called a place here in utah and asked how much they charge to put a body lift on. They said with the purchase oft he lift and labor it came out to 445.00. Ive heard that it is a real pain in the ass. I asked Joe Darlington about it and he said that he would recomend not doing it. He said the parts are cheap parts. (secret: Joe said he might make his own to sell shhh)
im going to do it and will most likely have a 4x4 shop to do it because people have had problems with the stearing so if there is a problem ill take it back and have them fix it (shh my bumper is also bent so ill let them deal with that)

Call around. You should be able to get it done for less than that.

My buddy who has done 14 body lifts on all kinds of different vehicles said that out of them all, the trooper was the easiest he's ever done.
Not sure if those are inspiring words to you, or even if the rodeo is even remotely similar to the trooper, but you should just find a buddy who is reasonably automotively sound and make a weekend out of it (if you want to be extra careful)

Justin I did mine over a week, but probably spent 10hrs on it (first time). Next weekend, Jonsey and I slapped one on his in about 7 hrs (with lots of "beverage" breaks <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />). Nothin' to it if you have a basic set of tools and a floor jack. Save your $$. If you can do the suspension lift, you can do this <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />. Toughest part about it was the steering extension and I/we can walk you through that.
