it doesn't look so bad when it is all broken down. I'm guessing 5 hours labour? Which is kinda high for the job. I think 1 hour for each top and each arm would be enough.
but that is only a 1 hour, 99 dollar savings. it is kinda hard for me to judge as i would normally do these basic mechanical jobs myself. your location? |

Strut tops could be had for about $160ish
Why do you need the hole lot or is it the bearings ?? And hour per side per item is about the going rate, so as stated before they Are saying 5 hours. Bushes can easily be purchased for about $120 retail for superpro bushes from and rear
