As I already suspected, they are overcharging. I’ve been dealing with this shop for years but I guess I’ll have to find someone else. Not many options locally so I guess I’ll have to travel to LA or OC.
Gotcha, I thought you were referring to the same shop that OP went too.
Ohhh no. Totally different facility.
I got a quote from a shop up in Montclair for $575 (includes alignment) and will take half a day if you bring the shocks yourself. Eibach is semi-local in Riverside (15 & 91 fwy) and maybe will have will call for pick up.
I’m not far from Riverside. Recall the name of the shop? Thanks brother. Appreciate it.
What was the name of the shop you went to? and do you know if they changed and charged for new alignment cams for the lift? I only ask because some of these bigger off road shops are saying they have to be replaced due to the increased lift in order to get the correct alignment and can't reuse the stock ones.
Both, UCA (upper control arm) and camber/caster kit are recommended for best geometry, after lift. Many have stated here, either up front...or not, that they have not added these.
Yeah I’m starting to think my truck is perfect the way it is. Might do a wheel swap but I think the rest I’ll leave alone. Thanks for the info.
Aww, hope I didn't discourage you...just wanted to emphasize that if doing something, do it right from the get-go. Definitely in favor of shocks vs. puck only lifts but when it comes to suspension (lifting or lowering), there are times where people have remorse immediately afterward. This can come from not purchasing all correct components...or even if they did, a remorse of it not being what they wanted, or hoped.
