That seems pretty steep to me. For that price, you may as well just pay a shop to do it that charges around $100/hour and not have to spend the time wrenching. Another concern is what happens if you run into a snag and can't get your rig running or back together. I guess you'd then be forced to tow it out of there or continue to pay by the hour during their hours of operation.
I feel for people who like to do their own wrenching but don't have the space to do it in. Definitely one of the downsides to apartment living.

That is why you get your own lift in your garage.
10F 3IN ceiling only garage here, got a low ceiling lift (9FT 3IN) for 2800$ canadian delivered/installed/tax included, worth around 2000$ american. Can get the truck high enough to work on it comfortably.
Cost just a bit more than the quickjacks (2400$ canadian) I had bought before that lift only 18 inches.
