[neo-truth]

Most dealerships charge $80+ an hour from what I've heard. If you take it someplace else you might find cheaper ($60ish).

Yea, the dealer will rip you off. I got a lucky break, I have a friend of mine who owns a shop and is gona be installing them for $100 today or tom.

how many hours work should i expect this to be?

 

[eddiemoney]

Will what work be? I dont knwo if im blind but I dont see you mentioning anything more than suspension work. If you are talking spring replacement expect at minimum 3 hours.

 

[BeLLeSe]

hahha....my bad....yeh springs and rear sway bar

 

[iGod]

springs and rear sway would acutally take about 2.5 hours. what someone will bill you for, thats another story.
the dealership is only a rip off for those of us who are not concerned with our factory warranty. for peace of mind, the charge is worth it for some people.

 

[iGod]

for springs and sway, i would charge you $125 and a six-pack of sierra nevada.

 

[eddiemoney]

Want to drive to Iowa and do that for me??

 

[iGod]

do i want to? sure. am i going to? nope.

wow, 125$ an hour?. Friend of mine did it for 65$ an hour. total came out to 200.

 

[mikecain]

i went to the dealer and they told me to add the trd springs it would take the whole day and would cost me 420 dollars

 

[iGod]

i do flat rate, not this by the hour crap. one fee, for everyone, all the time. 100 bucks for springs, 25 bucks to add the sway, 25 more to add shocks/struts. seems more than fair.

 

[fcknrace12]

Thats what I had in mind a flat fee. Heck, I'll do $80 for the spring install. $20 for the sways.
