Spring and shock install
I live in jacksonville but commute to Tampa often, usually driving through Orlando. The dealership quoted me 700 to install springs of which 2 are already on the shocks and the other two have to be compressed. Thought that was insane. I'm a student and a friend hooked me up with the suspension after he switched to coils. Is anyone interested in doing the install for me for some cash on the side or possibly teaching me and help me and maybe go out to dinner after on me. Let me know, they are swift springs with factory shocks just sitting in my garage. Really wanna get them on. Thanks

I payed 400 to have Nismo Springs put on one of our Z's (from the dealer). 700.00 is a rip off. I cant tell do you have struts too? Maybe thats why it cost more. Just have them put the springs on.

I got a quote on a similar job just a week ago and it was $400 with the alignment.
|
drive to Atlanta...
|
I got a quote for $300, $75/corner... I am more friends with the mechanic now, so I assume $200, and I have lifetime alignments!
|
3-450... installed and aligned properly would be the good fair price.

Dude I told you if you needed help with anything let me know. We have lifts compreser thing for the springs and all the tools you need on base. If you want just pm me and we will do it while I do some things to my car as well. I won't charge there is plenty of DIY on this and I've done it before on some of my other cars.
