I went to a shop yesterday to ask how much it would be to install them and they gave me a quote for $700.....I was wondering roughly how long does it take to put all 4 on?

Seeing you are in NJ, should have gotten in touch with us. We carry those springs and can do the install. Currently we charge $200 for spring installs. Bundled with an alignment we charge $300. -mike http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/91072632.jpghttp://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/141039922.jpg http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/133406601.jpg http://upload.pbase.com/image/137566671.jpg 11+ Years Maintaining, Modifying and Educating TriState Subaru Enthusiasts.

htioki Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 $700 is way too much. You should be able to do it yourself in 4-5 hrs with only hand tools. Having a friend definitely helps. Your car is relatively new, so you wouldn't have to deal with rusted or seized-up bolts which should make the install easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutbackXT05 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Its a fairly easy job. Just rent/buy some spring compressors and youll be good to go. Id say about an hour per corner is what it usually takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniStiGuy Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 took me and a buddy about 3 hours to do. It's easy if you have a compressor and jack. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course this was in 2002 when A, Z and P were all much younger! There was no YouTube back then and you were lucky if your cell phone did anything beyond make a phone call!

BoostWagon Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Just had Epics and Konis installed with new top hats all around, was $375 plus fabrication of a tool to reach the Koni adjusters in the rear (wagon) for an extra $50. For those of us who don't do this stuff ourselves, that seemed like a good $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWSPECB Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I do most things myself but when I was ready to put my springs on I just went to the closest privately owned Les Schwabb and paid $250 for all four plus an alignment and popcorn while I waited.

Wow, that is ridiculously low. The book is about 6 or 7 hrs.

NWSPECB Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Well now I feel jipped...Otis Spunkmeyer cookies and a race simulator sounds much better and worth the $50 more dollars!

s2baru Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Popcorn is always a plus...

I know a lot of people have swifts it seems or rce blacks, owell, seems the teins go the lowest before spensing 1500+ on coilovers.
