Which spacers do you have? The bolt on or stud replacement type?
It takes about 20 minutes a wheel to replace the studs on the front, 40 minutes a wheel on the back as you have to fiddle with the drum shoes. If they are the bolt on type then 10 minutes a wheel.
Spring replacement in the rear is 15 minutes per side as you just have to remove one bolt and loosen another.
Strut removal in the front is pretty straight forward but takes a little time. 3 bolts holding the plate, 1 lower shock mount, brake hose, 3 bolts up top. With a proper impact "strut" compressor (not spring compressor) it takes about 15 minutes to swap the spring on the strut once the strut is removed from the car. AutoZone actually rents one that is pretty decent.
So basically 4 hours of work (would bill 5) plus 1 hour on the alignment rack.
