I posted to find a better price than what the big shops were offering and a lot of people came through so unless someone posts "i need my springs installed for around $600" save yourself the trouble and don't click the link. And you obviously didn't get my point about Walmart. Let me know when your head shrinks a little and we can have a mature conversation. But moving on if anyone needs a spring/ coilover installation in a shop with power tools and a lift for my price, let me know and I'll point you in the right direction.
You sir, are sadly mistaken in your outlook on shops and labor rates. I've been in this business for quite some time. It's unbelieveable how many customers I get because of their bad experience at a cheaper shop, and now they have to pay twice to get one thing done correctly. A large part of being an educated consumer is being completely educated, not just about what you want done, but the actual cost and how that cost in calculated. As previously stated, we use an actual manual to quote labor prices. That being said, you should not be so suprised at the cost of your requested repairs. Any other arument is a moot point. Period. Maybe next you'll start a thread about rising gas prices. Good luck buddy
