it is a biatch dude! They have to move the fuse boxes, coolant tank, remove the strut bar and remove the strut/springs all together. its a pretty good job. I was charged $50 for each side....so $100.
A lot of people dont realize that on things like this the dealer may be the best option because theyve more than likely done it before. Now i have no idea how much time is quoted for strut changes at the dealer....but that would be the most they would charge. My dealer charges me for actual time they work on my truck...not by the quoted time in their computer. keep that in mind when you have things done. call the dealer too. My dealer charged me $50 for each strut...but....a lot of dealers are different and try to rape their service csutomers. Anyway....I bet you live the new struts and shocks! i have the SRt Bilsteins and they are one of the best mods I have done. they completely transformed my jeep!
