Hey -
Just wondering if you think that $500 is a good price for the replacement of 4 shocks - There is a local FLAPS that is having a rebate on Monroe shocks (buy 3 get one free - Includes Severe Service) and 50% off installation.

Hey - I'm lazy and don't have all of the tools/spring compressor/etc.
Also, it will net out at ~$450 with the rebate on 1 shock.

Today I pulled the front suspension apart on the parts car and its not all that terrible to do. Wheels, brakes, upper and lower ball joints, then the bolt out the bottom and the three nuts on top. Hold down with a pry bar on the lower control arm and pull the assembly out. Then use a set of spring compressors to collapse the spring and remove the center nut. Probably takes 15-25 minutes a side with air tools and as long as the hardware comes off like it should. The rear shocks are even easier, I removed both sides within 10 minutes. I also have a lift so that may contribute to the speed of how quick I can pull it off.
Keep one thing in mind, I went crazy for the last two weeks chasing a loose suspension and I tightened every bolt and nut I can find and checked all the shocks which is why I know how to remove the rears so easily. It turned out to too high a air pressure in the rear tires. Heat expands so it can increase your air pressure to the point that the rear feels disconnected with the car. Check that first before investing in suspension parts. then check your rear control arm bushings and sway bar end links.

I was quoted $800.00 for 4 KYB installed. Bastages!
Excess in Moderation.
Sprinkles are for winners.
That's less than half price, I'd like that kinda deal, too.
I paid just over $300 for my fronts and rears about 18 months ago from Advance Auto.
That's what I'm thinking, too, Tom. $500 may be just a touch high, but certainly not highway robbery.
