    The 912 spring lift is very simple and any offroad shop would be able to do it. All they are doing is installing larger springs and shocks in the rear and then most of their time will be spent cranking on the torsion bar. Should take a shop less than 4 hours to do. figure $140 for springs, $xx for rear shocks depending what kind you get (around $160), and 4 hours shop time @ $70/hour = a $600 lift

    And if you are planning on running large tires rear bumpstop extensions will be needed, the offroad shop may be able to fab them up or you can buy everything at darlington_offroad.com or independent4x.com They also have kits with more stuff in them but this is all that is necessary.
