Anyone ever ask a shop about strut replacement? Yup, 2 hours per corner(8 hour claim), whole job completed in 2 hours including the time it took them to come pick you up.
First of all, that's how tech's make money, they complete a 2 hour job in 1 hour they still get paid for 2 hours, so I could pretty easily bill out 12-20 hours in 1 days work(8-10 hours)

Also book time for all 4 struts for a fr-s is 2.5 hours front and 2.9 hours rear so your over exaggerating or your dealer is actually screwing you for whatever reason (money usually)
