I just got a quote from my dealer. $3,400.00 for the lift, installation and a 3/36 gap warranty for items not covered by the dealer. I think that price is in line with what everyone else is being quoted.

I do have rservations. The rep told me to be aware of the new product "adjustment" period. Since the item is new, if I do the lift I will essentially drive a "test" vehicle for the lift and it's components. I've never done a lift so I'm not sure what to expect.

However, this is my wife's rig and I don't want problems, especially when the lift shop is 50 miles away.

I wonder if I'm better off slightly adjusting the torsion bar and calling it a day.

Any thoughts on this? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Well, you solved your warranty concerns for 3/36 anyhow. They should have gone 4/50 like your factory warranty though. ???

That's a GREAT price installed @ $3400.00.

The H3 is very new just like the lift. You "could" have issues from hell by installing a new lift, but you "may" have none at all.
To the best of my reading abilities, not one member has done the lift yet. So it's really hard to say how realiable and how well it will handle.

So here's my thoughts FWIW:
If your tires will fit, put them on and raise yout T bars slightly and call it done. If they are going to rub at all even with slight adjustment to the T Bar, hold off and wait for others to "test" the lift out to get some feedback.
(opinion stated above is due to the fact this is your wife's truck and it could be a health issue for you if you mess up her new ride).

If it were your daily driver, I'd just lift it and get the correct offset rim off the bat for the lift. Stock rims/ offset will not work with this lift.

Good luck, after seeing your past rigs, I'm sure it will look great whatever you decide.
