Eibach Pro Springs kit...How Long?
Just got back from my Nissan dealership. I was quoted 8 hours for install plus alignment for the Eibach springs. That sounds way too long. Can anyone give me an idea??? Thanks guys!

about an hour and a half is what it took me, not counting the time it took to go to the local goodyear to have them change out the fronts with a proper spring compressor (which only added about 40 to the price)
