Okay I went to Cowboy Toyota yesterday and got a quote to install TRD Springs. They said it's going to be $508.00 for installation plus tax!!!yea WTF, I was speechless!! My question is, did anybody paid that much to install some springs!

 

I paid $100 to a friend. I'd do it myself next time though... it really isn't that difficult. Just follow the step by step instructions they have on the forum.

 

lol wow... thats the quote i got from the dealership.... all u need is spring compressors.... and an impact wrench.. makes things much faster.. i put springs on in about 3 or so hours... after the first one it gets much easier

 

Really? Yea they was saying that they have to take every single thing peice by peice apart, that's why it cost so much!!

 

Even a tuner shop will only charge about $200

 

If you dont want to do it, I'm sure theres some small shops that will do it for $200. Got mine done for that price.

 

a good shop will charge ya $150-200.

 

Dude just heat them up with a torch and get all your buddies to sit on that part your heating There ya go

 

brilliant!^^^

 

Yeah, dealership=rape....Get the tools and do it yourself or have a friend do it. They are really easy to install, just takes some time and patience. I went to the hobby shop on base and we used their air tools and lift for like $70. Also got the tires balanced.

 

haha thanks for the tip u guys, yea I might just get some tools and do it myself well of course with some friends!

 

=) its not hard... just time consuming when u do the back cause u gotta rip out all the carpet in the trunk before u can get to the bolts

 

Yeah the back is harder to get at than the front,but once you get it out the new ones go in pretty easy.........wish I had access to a garage back when I paid ot have mine done......I wold of jsut done my own........

 

i did it myself with a friend and it took about 6 hours. it was our first time doing any type of install so we took our time. just follow the instructions on here and you'll be golden.

 

Get a few friends and rent the tools to do it yourself. Took me about 3 hours with my bro to do it. Probably could have shaved an hour off of that had the damn spring compressor we had not been such a POS.

 

i might cut slits in the carpet in my trunk to get to the nuts instead of stripping everything out. that way i can go back and check the tightness every so often and further suspension work wont be so time consuming.

 

i got mine put in at a tuner shop and they did it for $110, and it only took them an hour give or take a few minutes

 

i got mine put in for 125 by a guy on here (Munch).
