I am calling my local shops around and i have been quoted on 350 and up. Some tell me it takes 5 hours some tell me it takes 7 hours lol.
I am researching here and asking other members and they are getting them on for 150 to 230 which sounds reasonable.
I am trying to do this soon as i might be getting my wheels on this Friday or sometime next week.
Anyone knows of any shops or individuals who can get a good job done for a reasonable price?
Thanks

I think everyone charges those prices in Boston, look into installing them yourself.

I could have sworn you were in Maryland. That's why I sent you that text. lol

Kevblah I have no idea or tools to do it myself! I will have to ask my friends! Just very scared of messing smth up...

Clkboi, I think all you need is a spring compressor (which you can rent from Auto Zone), a jack, some jack stands, and a ratcheting wrench set.
I might be getting some springs and DIY'ing mine later on this year.

I had a custom wheel shop that did mine for 175.00. The deal was if I bought the springs there. Which I did. 240.00 H&R. 3 guys worked on it for about 2 1/2 - maybe 3 hours tops. They didn't look like chicken's running with their heads cut off doing it. KC Treads for those in the MO. - KS. area
Now my Indy was another story. Quoted me 650.00 due to it being a 5-6 hour job.
Makes one wonder how they come up with their prices.

thats a good price. I need to look for places out of my state like CT RI NH since MA likes to rob you as much as they can in anything.Originally Posted by Mka77
