    I haven't used either of them myself (haven't done suspension upgrade yet) but the 2 I've seen most recommended are:

    https://www.shaffersoffroad.com/
    https://www.swatcustoms.com/

    I'm in Oakland, so mostly remember things near-ish there. There may be more options further east or south I'm not familiar with.

    And of course 4wheel parts.

    East Bay can be a bit vague but I’ll second the Shaffer’s Offroad suggestion. The shop is in Alameda and the owner is quite proficient in any Offroad task you can ask of him.

    Thanks for the reply fellas! I decided to go with SWAT Customs in Fremont. Brian is a nice guy and they did a great job installing my lift!

    Milo of Milogen Fabrications located in Milpitas did a great job on installing my lift kit and upgrading some parts on my truck. I would recommend him to any of the forum members for a lift kit install on their truck.
