So how much would i expect to pay a shop to do a body lift for me?
I don't know how to weld, and dont feel this a good thing to learn on?

They would charge in the neighbor hood of $600- $1000

You dont need to weld. I never installed those crush blocks and I know many who have not as well.

Buy the kit, and shoot a thread to the PA guys see if we can do a meet and we can help you. Like Myke said, there is no need to weld, but if you feel its necessary to have the crush blocks put in you can do it after the BL is done. My brother has a truck set up with all welders and I could get him to do it for you
