Eibach Pro Springs kit...How Long?

EVO_Killer · 07-21-2009, 01:31 PM

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!

i replaced my shocks on my IS300 this past weekend. with minimal tools and a manual spring press, several beer breaks, and lunch, it took 7 hours.......

8 for a pro is sad....

Is the quote with adjustable camber arms?

Mike · 07-21-2009, 06:22 PM

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)

Spring install with adjustable camber arms and toe bolts with alignment...I would charge 6 hours labor

Just had my Eibachs installed today. In by 2:30 out by 4. Movie and great conversation thrown in free.

Thanks Amplified!

Your welcome

Average Spring install is 2hours, another 2 hours front and rear camber arms, front being hour and half and 30 min for the rear including toe bolts

Thanks guys. I am booked in for Thursday nest week. I have the SPL Pro rear camber arms. Still debating about some coilovers... Would love some HKS's but might go KW better porduct from what i read... Any thoughts???

Quick question to those whom have the Eibachs... besides using the rear camber/toe kit is anything needed on the front to re-align to factory specs?

Great question, I was about to ask this myself as I'm getting ready to drop the beast.
