Figured I'd ask the 'real' installers instead of getting a time from Full-Traction or RE.
Time for 6-inch LA? (Full-Traction)
Time for 4.5 inch RE Super Flex?
and incase I hit the lottery and have a shop do it instead of my lazy ass..
Reasonable time it should take a shop to do either..?
Thanks guys..

~ 4-6 hours if there are no problems like broken shock mounts or other stubborn bolts

About 2x whatever the recommended time is. Its never the real big stuff that takes the time, its all the stupid little stuff or little hang-ups that make the install take MUCH longer than intended. With help, a day maybe, by youself...two days I would say. That way if you do actually take two days, it won't be a problem...

double that time for me just cause i hadn't ever done anything that dramatic on suspension before. rebuilding bugs just isn't the same thing.

my buddy asked about a 5.5" from a local shop. guy said 14hours. not sure if that is relavent, but I wanted to sound useful.

mine was my 1st lift install on any kind of vehicle,and all the bolts were very rusty even though i soaked them for a week before i started the install. It took me 2 and a half days of solid work to get it done, your experience may vary.
