    Coil over install costs???

    I hate to ask such a general question, but how much should I expect to pay an independent to install GC coilovers/plates/RSM's and align it. Is corner weighing an absolute necessity or can it be eyeballed (measured) without it being put on scales?

    I have been quoted 600 labor for the turnkey job. Is this in the ball park? Doing it myself is out of the question. Not enough time...

    I paid $220 for the install, maybe $60 or so on an alignment. This is in Canuck dollars too. Your quote seems high, even if we're talking about fixed-rate shop gouging.
