Reasonable...
$50/corner is normal + alignment.

FWIW...
Don't do the alignment right away.
Let the springs settle for at least 1 week.

4 wheels; 4 springs; 4 corners.
so $200 for springs + 100 alignment. = $300 is a decent quote.

He meant that sounds good.

$50 for each corner x 4 = $200 + $100 to do the alignment= $300

and inTgr8r said it is best to let the springs settle in for a few weeks before you get the alignment done.

LOL,,,,,,,,,,,,you beat me Ian We both posted at 9:12

rear springs are easy to install.. fronts would be a good project with a friend.. or find a member on here to install them for you. I think I paid $80 for all 4 springs

^did you have an illegal alien do them or a shop with a $30/hour labour rate?

I agree the rears are fairly easy. I've had mine in and out 3 times now.
