How Much should I expect to pay to instal AEV Carrier
so I picked up an AEV carrier since I purchased 37's last weekend, and I am just wondering how much I should expect to pay to have it installed?

were in mass are u?
I'm in Holliston area most of the time but away with work until after the new year.
If your handy it should only take you about 3 hrs or so. The directions AEV sends with the bumpers is straight forward and easy to understand.
I'm not a shop for repairs I just do all my own work and do it as a hobby.
So if you can wait then a few
and a little time could help you take care of it.all the work listed below on the 09 I did myself. still working on it almost done.

I had this priced at the local shop in denver and it was dollar for dollar...so carrier was $700 install $700. I bought the carrier and did the install myself. No knowlege just the instructions and a full Saturday. Ask a forum member and give it a try. You'll be good to go.

Yeah tell me about it.. I've come to realize whatever I want to buy I need to double to get it installed. I just ended up doing it myself. Took me about 6-7 hrs one saturday, but I double checked everything and measured 3 xs.. ha. Its an awesome carrier though and doable with basic tools. I used a Dremel to cut the bumper and that saved a ton of time. Good Luck.

I just called the place that installed my lift they said since I am a returning customer theyd charge 75 and hr and estimated it at 3 hrs to me thats probably worth it to just pay to have it installed, i have very basic tools and basic knowledge and my time is pretty booked up until after the holidays
