Is this a good price to install a lift?

Simple skyjacker 2", with shocks, & the alignment $425. This also includes the install of the alignment cams.
The guy said it's 5 hours of labor.

I have all the pieces including the cams.

I got charged $300 for install on my 4" kit. It took 6 hours and that is a 50 bucks an hour.

That's not that bad of a price. I'd recommend doing it yourself though. It is NOT a hard lift at all. You could save some bucks by only paying a shop to do the alignment afterwards.

I tried, I gave up. I couldn't even get the lower shock bolts off. After 10 days & 2 cans of PB blaster on evey bolt & banging them with a rubber mallet. Need air tools. I had access to them but not anymore since the guys I knew at a shop left. I have tools, & would love to do it if the bolts would come off. I tried various breaker bars & leverage. Heating the bolts with a torch. It's not worth my pain & suffering. The alignment plus the install of the cams would be $150 anyway. Another $275 to install the lift & shocks isn't too bad.

depends where you are too. I am positive that any shop here in virginia will charge atleast $65/hour. I installed my lift for free (myself), except meals to a few guys that helped. My 4" lift took about 18 hours (2nd gen though). Good luck.
