4 x 4 airbag install for $1k?

[2drtahoe]

I called up a shop in Lafayette, Ca that claimed they would do the install for $1000 labor if I provide the parts. he said it would take a day. Is this BS? I was thinking they might be trying to reel me in. Especially when he said parts can be had for $500...:think: :whatever: I'm pretty new to all this but even I know that's gotta be way too cheap. I was under the impression that I'd be paying at least $3k to have an air bag system, am I wrong?

Also, I understand the front is all custom brackets but is there a basic kit I could buy where they could fab up the brackets? Or do I basically have to piece it together?

The shop name is Urban Suburban inc, btw.

I have found a complete kit, it cost $2489.00, installation may vary place to place. 1,000 doesnt sound bad to me. The kit is for 4x4 tahoes, think it was from airbagit.

[2drtahoe]

by any chance do you have a link to that kit?

I paid 4k for all togather, took 2 weeks to finish it.
if you are going with bolt on kits, 4 links needs to adjusted. unless you are going with airrides bolt on kits which will cost ya more.

Do yourself a favor and stay away from airbagit.com it is another company owned and run by aim industries which has a reputation of selling very poor quality junk and very bad customer support after they have your money.

yeah go with quality parts and also shop that has very good reputation.
mine so far every problem I had they fixed it right away, I already drove about 1k got used to the bag setup and ride height.

$500 in parts to bag something.....I'd steer clear of them. for a budget install, you could get away with 1,500 in new parts, but $500 will barely buy you bags and valves!

yeah, that's kinda what i figured. i don't think they really know what they're talking about. i called back a day or two ago and i asked some more specific questions about the install and he couldn't answer any of my questions. i asked him which parts i should buy and he told me to look it up on the internet.

i'm probably just gonna do a static drop for now. it woulda just been nice to hit the button to get over bumps easier.

I would love to start collecting parts for a airbag setup...
Anyone have a reccomended list of parts to get for a 4X4 2dr Tahoe?
