how much will it cost me to take in my car to just install some springs. what prices have u gotten? thanks.

 

125+

 

I was quoted $100

 

damn thats a grip.. I'd just take a couple hours out of my weekend and do it myself..

Probably gonna take more than a couple hours.

First time it took me 6 hours, ran into a few problems. I could do it in a few hours now I bet.

 

The most for all four should be an hour each. But a couple of hours would be my guesstimate. i've only changed 2 at a time. It's a very easy job. I've watched a 15 year old girl change springs on a Corvette.

 

you should do it yourself but you need a springs compressor for the front.....the rear lower bolt sometimes gets seized and won't come off....I learned that the hard way when I changed my springs and had to take it to meineke so they can do the rear springs for me. Shouldn't cost more than $100 for front and rear though and $50 for a 4-wheel alignment....good luck

 

spring compressor rental is free (w/ a deposit) and I'd already have all the other tools..

I figure it this way..
on weekdays at work.. you earn money.. on weekends you don't... you can spend a few hours to a day and save yourself $100 + learn from the experience on how to do the install.. then you can do future spring/shock install on your cars and your friends cars....

OR you can spend $100 on the weekend of your hard earned money.. to me I'd rather save the $100.. instead of spend $100 on a day I'm not working/pulling in money.. thats just me though..

 

i've been quoted back in highschool...4 years ago, $80-$120 to do it. But doing it yourself is a lot easier, cheaper, and its always good to learn how to do stuff to your own car.
