Suspension Payment

[Andr3w]

A friend and I just installed new struts/shocks and springs on another friends Eclipse. He wants to pay us however much a shop would have. Anyone know about how much that would be?

[DieselNuts]

probably about $200 I would think

call up Mainstream or Battlground and ask. I believe the usual going rate for that type of work is around 75$hr.

My friend got his Gti lowered at kauffman tire and they charged him $200

200 is a fair price. Some shops may charge up to 400.

If it's a friend, then just charge him $30-$50/hr. That's standard. For shops, it'd cost $75-$100/hr for shop mtn fees and other shiznitz.

You guys are right. He just called a local place around here and they quoted $206 so that's cool. Thanks

~TDRwhen your at a shop its not about how long it takes u to do it. its about how many hours the book gives you to do it in. just because i can do it in 3 hours and its supposed to take 5 doesnt mean im charging for 3. thats how u make money at a shop.

Friend labor is half price of shop labor. $100 is fair
