Hey guys. For those of u that paid someone to install your Eibachs, what was the labour charge? 4hrs? More or less? Trying to find someone honest to do mine and I want to make sure I'm not getting ripped off.

 

My dealership wanted $300.
I did it myself in about 3 hours (I used to be a mechanic).

 

It took me 2 hours with a wall spring compressor and air gun...you shouldnt pay more than $250...

 

A wall spring compressor and an air gun would have been nice.
I used the crappy 2-piece manual spring compressor I rented from advanced auto, and my 1/2 drive ratchet.

 

I paid $150 to get them installed.

 

I paid $75 per axle so $150 total. The rears you can easily do yourself with a jack and jackstands but the fronts definitely need a spring compressor and I wasn't about to rent a janky one I just had my boy do it all.

 

I spent I believe 50 just to get the front springs compressed and had the shop compress new springs onto struts, did all tear down and reinstall myself, very easy with a friend and some homemade moonshine

 

man 4 hours of labor at a shop, that's crazy. I am no mechanic, but it took me about 2 hours maximum. I used an impact to get the bolts loose and a machine spring compressor. $150-300 is pretty fair.

 

I paid $185 and I believe it was 2 hours.

 

$210 installed

 

$50 and my weekend for myself to install it. . . If I can do it then I bet you can too! Btw I rented all my tools from autozone and didn't have a garage
