pile o parts........

yep, big pile of parts sitting in my home waiting for the time and place to have them put on. al new suspension set up, strut plates, wheel insolater bearings, springs, spring isolaters, kyb struts, and boots. question is, how much time to put all this $hit on and how much??? i have a general idea, i'm thinking 4 to 5 hours give an hour for rusted or broken parts ( strut plates are shot and can't be tightened ) any suspension junkies step in.....

are you planning on doing it or having someone else do it? ide say it should be about 3-4 hours (if that) since everything is going in the same place. its not like youve got to take a dumpload of stuff off to put that in. its just taking the spring/strut assembly off and apart, getting the part you neeed off it, and putting it together with the new parts. air tools are your friend if youre doing this job yourself

just did my rear struts springs -- 2 hours with air compressor and tools. Was actually longer but i snapped 2 wheel studs in the process of taking off the right rear tire. The front struts / springs are estimated at 3 to 4 hours with no problems... so your estimate is if superman is working with you. Oh ask him to swing by i need help with my neighbors Civic, it needs to disappear.

lol...dude its not hard. youre just slow. haha. plus breaking two studs probably didnt help your cause. superman can eat some kryptonite and the job can still easily be done in 3-4.
