There's a shop thread in the so-cal section

Where are you located
The answer depends on your technical skills and what you’re comparing the quote too. To me it’s highway robbery because I did that job myself on my last 4Runner in around 2-3 hours including changing out the rear springs. If your frame of reference is comparing it to another installation quote, others may be more helpful.
I think it's a reasonable price. They're disassembling your OEM shocks and using your springs I assume? Full removal, install, and lets not forget liability and warranty which is factored into every single aspect of any job. Then the alignment which is $100-$125 give or take. Are they mounting and balancing your new tires? I charge $115 an hour at my shop as a point of reference so all said and done, you're covering 4-5 hours of labor and sales tax .
If that's the price including parts then it looks pretty reasonable to me for California pricing. I paid what would have been ~$950 for parts and labor combined in San Antonio in 2014, and mine didn't include installing spacers in the back.
Will be using current tires I have on now. This info is helpful. Thanks

Stock size? If so, think long and hard. I thought about lifting and waiting to install bigger tires. I went up 3" front and rear using the ToyTec Ultimate kit and it looked ridiculous. Looked the it skipped leg day lol.
Just got quoted $1197.90 for Bilstein 5100 front and rear, rear spacer, labor alignment and tax. Is this reasonable or highway robbery?
Shocks: ~$400-$500
Spacer: ~$80
Remaining: $617-$717
Sounds about rigt to me, was this for a 3rd gen?
Lol. Currently running 275/55/20. Planning only 1.75 clip with 1” rear spacer. Looking for a leveled stance.

OK wasn't sure since you're running 20s, thought it may be a limited. No KDSS right?
Thanks. Yes, it’s including parts. What do you mean “what would have been”? Did you end up not getting it done? Was this a quote you received?
