    Lowering springs

    How much to install a set been quoted over $1000 seems excessive to me, anyone had them done cheaper and who through, I'm in WA, thanks

    Rear springs take 10 mins per side. Front springs are more involved, probably an hour.

    $1,000 for install only is nuts. I did mine in my garage at home in a coupe of hours. With a hoist and the right tools it would be much faster.

    Yeah quotes for suspension are out to lunch. I got a quote for almost 3k for a Bilstein b8 kit and H&R springs supplied and installed. The kit is around 1k so almost 2k in labour.

    Might be easier to rent(?) Some tools and have a go yourself with a mate? That is my plan, eventually.
