How much did you pay to have installed with or without the alignment? Getting wildly differing estimates.

Flat Rate Guide on Mitchell say 6.1hrs Labor for R&R of the struts and to dismantle and reassemble the strut assembly. As far as cost, I dont know..... figured I'd at least share that.

Seems like all front spacer/collar kit installs should be about the same, don't they all involve removal of strut assembly and insertion of spacer/collar and reinstall?

^^^^ If this is the one you have, you have the compress and disassemble the strut to install it. So, just a little more labor and special tools involved..... Rather than just fastening a spacer to the top of the strut and throwing it back in. Depends on the shop you go to. Just thought I share that as a baseline. Thought you could compare it to what you have be quoted. Hope that helps a little.

$270 seems cheap and $734 seems high. I was thinking around $350 when I bought them though. Watched the Stage 3 Motorsports vid and it didn't look anywhere near 6 hours. Thanks for your response!!
