This is something I would rather have someone that's done it a number of times do. I have a friend who is a diesel mechanic that did the suspension install on my jetta diesel but it took him 11hrs and he really wasnt happy doing it. I dont think I can ask him ..

Also would like to consult with them regarding selecting a lift /etc.

I just installed my first lift it was the 3in Teraflex full flex arm lift. I researched lifts and compared everything while reading the write ups I could find on forums. It really isn't as hard as you think it will be, have a buddy come over and with two pairs of eyes and plenty of time you'll get the lift on with no problems. It took me a full weekend to completely install my lift but I learned a lot about my Jeep so I feel like I'm more prepared to identify problems as well as fix them on the trails. Like you my Jeep is a 2012 so everything comes off super easy. Just my two cents

Save some money, learn a lot about your Jeep and do it yourself. There's tons on info on the forum to get you in the right direction.

Theres a new shop on rt 206 in Shamong that only does jeeps. I have never stopped in there to talk to them so not sure how they are. A guy up the street from me had his jk lifted and had no complaints. Not sure what there number is but I can get it for you next time I drive by it.
