Is this price ok to have all 4 shocks installed?

[littlejuanito]

I was quoted $580 (out the door) to replace all 4 shocks/struts, labor and alignment at this local shop.

Is this a good price?

BTW, the shocks would be KYB GR2

[RedGalant2k1]

Decent price, yes. Good part too!

[cntrylvr79]

x2 good price for some good stuff.

[oakrdrs187]

Good deal, if only u have lowering springs to give them, you'd be set with alignment too.

^x2

[littlejuanito]

Thanks guys. No, unfortunately I have no more money for some lowered springs

[MI_SPRAWLIN]

Should hold off on the shocks for a minute to scrounge some more coin. I picked up Tein springs from Coop's Customs for under $200 to my door. You'd save all that labor cause their already taking them out.

some people just want their car to be stock.

The price sounds fair.

[Jeffylou87]

Good price..

[ngwylie]

Wow only that much for front and rear struts...

At Springs Auto and Truck in Colorado Springs they charged me about $2000 (for stock replacement) or more to replace mine when I took my car in to get inspected.............. that was before I found out about this forum... I don't go to that shop anymore though.

if you want to save more money, you can find someone to do it yourselves.

KYB GR2: 200+tax
Alignment: 80
Beers + Some cash for labor for friend: 85

total comes out to about about 365+the tax lol

not very good friends if they need payment. Specialy not if your paying the beer in them.

[Da_Prodigy]

I get quoted around 850 for both front n rear spring/strutbreplacements + alignment n all dat other good stuff that price sounds really good compared to here.

Yeah I know you don't really "have" to pay them but i would for their hard work lol

[FrozenMBA]

it depends where you live. In LA, i had them installed at a shop for $160. Got the KYB's locally for $210. Try amazon.com or shox.com, (or do a google search on the part number) + alignment usually cost $60

I've seen craigslist posting for shock install as low as $80, but don't know if they can be trusted though.
