Default New Guy in NOVA
Just wanted to check in. Placing an order for a 2013 JKU tomorrow.

Anyone know a good and well priced shop around Northern VA that can do a lift install?

Thanks in advance!

I personally haven't gotten any work done by local shops. Some local 4x4 shops are Davis boys, trucking thunder, ori, and independent 4x4 (been kind of shady). I'm sure a couple of us would be willing to help as long as we have the tools.

For now changing my JKU shocks & springs to Rubicon Red Shocks, 18/59 springs, Control Arms, & TF Leveling Kit. Near future Front/Rear Bumpers, Fender Flares, & On-Board Air Compressor.

Cool, my problem is I do not have the space or tools. I am sure we could get the bumpers done (I have some tools & could supply beverages )but the suspension and on board air I would rather not bother with. Thanks for the reply fellas!!!

No, Though how difficult it is to weld them with the BJ in depends on the style of gusset. Which brand did you get?
