3 hours of time. I did not have them install the procal as I have Tazer JL mini already.
$700-800 including kit out the door + alignment.
Haha. The parts alone are $700 CAD pesos here in Khanadastan

That really looks sharp. I have never seen those wheels before. Awesome JT.

Amazing price as the kit alone is $589 with the Procal? Around here, alignment costs between $140-$160 plus kit install. Hang on to that shop!

Same, but I went with the extended Mopar LCAs for under $100 and installed them without even needing to jack it up or remove the wheels; 10 min install
So my question is how much longer are the extended LCAs than the stock ones.
I plan on adding the AEV 2" spacer kit to add clearance. Using the geo brackets takes that clearance away by hanging right back down where I'm trying to clear.
The extended LCAs make more sense for that purpose but I'm trying to figure out how much longer they are to see how much they'll affect the camber.

I think they're about 5/8" longer to keep the caster in factory spec

Thank you. That’s a good number. I can go outside, measure the control arm lengths, calculate the difference a 2” lift would make, and how much correction the longer control arms would make to see the effectiveness of them. From the feedback here I’m expecting it to be sufficient which is good because I don’t want to sacrifice clearance with the brackets

Can you confirm the Mopar # for the LCA? The one I read in the forum stated 68322798AA , but Quadratec states this won't fit?

Quadratec says the jt - Mopar 68567808AA

Had a chance to had this budget lift installed recently. Appears to have preserved stock driving characteristics for the most part.

Maybe less "floaty" then before. Can't tell if it's my imagination or not. LOL.

The hard part was getting the kit itself.

Looks GREAT!
