Default Ordering a hardtail kit this weekend!!!!

FINALLY I am SO EXCITED I am ordering my hardtail kit this weekend. I still and on the fence whether it will be from Bitter end or Ledsled. Any opinions??? Also I am looking for someone in the SFV ( Los Angeles ) area to do the install and wondering how long this whole job will take and what the cost should be?

There is a lot of work involved isnt there? Disassemble, remove swing arm, cut frame, bolt up kit, weld, paint and relocate a few things?
