installation time for springs

Justablackf80 · 04-11-2015, 07:34 PM

Whats the average time it takes springs to be installed? I just oredered my h&r springs and was wondering generally how long it takes.

Thank you in advanced.

I've been quoted around 4 hours of labor, from a shop that knows what they're doing (EAS in Anaheim).

About 4-5 hours, especially if they run an alignment afterwards.

1 hour per corner sounds about right.

I'd say around 4 hours as well, although EAS in Anaheim had mine on in around 2 hours. Those guys are awesome and know exactly what they're doing!

We had the springs done in an hour maybe a bit less ... 4 hours is way too long.

Probably just an over estimate. They get pretty busy. I'm not sure how many techs they have to work on cars

I haven't done yet, but 4 hours is a lot, even more when is someone that does that for a living....

guess the money has to come from somewhere

took me 5 hours to do the air suspension on my old mk6... on stands
