You can install it at home.
You end up saving money for something else.
it would be good to know where you are located am sure members from the forum would help you.

Round about 420.00 to 450 sounds about right for a 2/4 at least DJM. Some other brands might be cheaper...Anyone else have some input on pricing?

For prices you'll want to check Sales in the forum in case someone is getting rid of one, or check summit, jegs. There are a few performance shops in OKC that'll have kits.
On your wheels, you can run either 22 or 20 with or without the drop. Key is going to be your tire size.
A guy in my town has a 4/6 and my 275/55/20's would rub on his front fenders, while his 265/35/22"s worked fine.
I'd guesstimate prices anywhere from 450-600 depending on where you go.
