    I have a 2011 TRD Sport with stock bilsteins and I’m looking to have all 4 replaced with the 5100s. I got a quote yesterday for the work and I was curious what you guys thought. Is this a good deal? Thanks!

    $475 for all parts
    $425 labor

    Does the price include a front end alignment? If so price is good for a reputable shop. Remember guys got to eat.

    I’m comfortable doing the rears because it’s pretty straightforward. The front gets a little gnarly though when having to xfer that spring to the new equipment.

    i got mine from Jet.com during black friday... all 4 for less than $400... Took about 2.5 hours to do all 4. Get a spring compressor from a local autopart store.. its really straight forward to do

    No, it does not include alignment. If I had the proper tools I would love to tackle this project.

    I found all 4 on Amazon for $362 with tax and free shipping. I need a buddy with jack stands and the proper tools.

    A few mods here and there and counting....
    You don't need spring compressors for the front. Use this method https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5E6u7dC7EHg Its a lot safer and much easier. Many members here have used this method for quite some time including myself and found its the most effective and quickest way to swap the front springs/shocks.
