Plus an alignment. I'd say $300-350 including alignment would be what I'd expect.

2hrs!? I must have screwed something up. I did 1.75" lift with the 5100s and it took hrs to get them reinstalled. Getting the originals out, quick and easy. But getting the LCA down enough to get the new shock in was horrendous. Is there a trick I missed because I thought for a while there there was no way I could get that shock back onto the LCA. I had to stand on the LCA and it still barely would go low enough to get it in there. I keep hearing how easy it is and it all is except that one part and I'm not sure why.
