Cost of labor to installing lowering spring
I am not sure what a fair price for installing all 4 springs.
Anyone has an idea of the fair price I should be paying? Thanks! |
Don't forget to add an aliment cost into the figure.
|
It shouldn't be more than about 2 hours of labour, plus any parts.
|
The cost will depend on your local labor rate. When I was younger and couldn't/didn't wrench on my own car, I took a car to a local shop and was quoted 3.5 hours of labor at $85/hour. You do the math.
|
250-300
|
My shop said it took 3 hours at $65 an hour.

I heard $200 for the labor is a really good deal. But does our car really take more than two hours to install the spring??
|
I'd be shocked if it took someone more than 2 hours of actual work to swap the springs if they know what they're doing.
The only car I've worked on that took longer was a friends' MKIV golf that took us about 3.5 hours, but working EXTREMELY hungover. |
