I'm looking to get the Mopar 2' lift kit installed on my JLUR and wondering if anyone recommends a good independent mechanic that has experience with Jeeps to do this work. I've checked with Exleboy Offroading but they won't install the kit unless you buy the unit from them...lol. thank you..

I've used Axleboy and Hellbent. If you are a member of MWJT, I understand Hellbent might put on parts you bring - not sure about an entire lift though

You will need to call them. I don't work for the company... I just know the owners...

I just saw this. HIGHLY recommend Axle Boy!!!
the problem with those guys is that they try to upsell you on things and will only install brands they carry. I wanted them to install the Mopar kit i purchased and they would not.

The two shops you mentioned are the only 2 (i know of) in town. Why not try to bribe someone to help you, then just check your alignment? I try to avoid shops at all cost now. Axleboy did 3 of my last rear pinions seals and I’m tired of the hassle. Going to do my next myself.

I actually went with Auto Authority out in Wentzville MO. Chris Keadle is the owner and took very good care of me! He "professionally" installed the Mopar 2' Lift Kit and my Jeep now drives like a charm; no death wobble, spring bowing or any of the other nonsense you read from weekend do-it-yourselfers on this forum.

I highly recommend Chris if you are looking to install a lift kit on your JLUR.

Not too many shops will install product that you bring them. If it breaks, they do not get credit back for their labor from the vendors warranty... They also can't go back and get credit for the part either.

and that's why that other shop did not get my business and Auto Authority did;)
