ask them where they are getting the struts....and how much they cost.....no sense getting the oem replacements if they are more than $200.....cause you can get the kyb's for the same price....

but the labor does seem kind of high....i know i swapped my struts and springs in less than an hour...[&:]

it doesnt sound too bad...stock struts $50.00 each, alignment $65.00....moron doin the labor $60-$80 per hour.....

i got a newer set of ACR konis that are gonna go on my car as soon as i rip them off of the other car.....and im gonna paint them red

I think i may have my uncle do it, cause if whoever it was said he did his in an hour, thats bogus for labor then...

my buddy replaced a CV shaft in like 3 min on my car. he had it at his shop. i bet anyother shop would have quoted that for at least and hour and a half. some shops are ripoffs
i just had to get that out of my system other then that is pretty simple to do yourself if you have the tools.
