In my experience, yes. As long as it goes smoothly and they don't encounter something that would put them way over the quoted labor time (like seized parts or another issue/problem not mentioned in the quote)

Why not just replace your arms yourself? If you're not having to press in anything it's pretty straight forward except for needing an alignment after

Though I've never replaced LCAs, but the UCAs were way easier than I was expecting.

I can't imagine the lowers would be any trickier other than marking the cams so you don't end up with a crazy whack alignment afterwards

 

Good shops do. Okay shops will give you a warning when they realize they're going over labor time. Bad shops don't and hold your rig hostage till you pay the remaining balance

 

Cause I don’t wanna deal with things like seized

 

IDK then...we don't have that curse out here so I'm not sure how shops figure it into a reliable quote

 

Most shops have computer program that lists hours it should take to do a certain job than they multiply it but their hourly rate

Than add the price of parts

Mine doesn't have a stopwatch and count the amount of time over we go

But if we got a rusty truck in we would send then down the road

 

I use alldata and it is hilarious some of the times it comes up with for things

 

Like what? Good or bad?

 

Depends, gimme a random job on a specific car along with the time you know you could do the job in and ill tell you what it books as. Some are accurate some are way over, don't usually see under

 

I’ll just have to ask when I get a quote for my brake shit.

These guys would probably let me

 

I had forgotten about these. I need to expand my driveway. This may be a solution. The sections are small enough that I could pour and finish them.

That's right, be jealous

 

on the list of all time faves for sure

 

It's more here, 4.19 for premium

Didn't I calculate the total savings over the course of 5 years having gotten rid of that supercharger? Think it was a few thousand

 

It's from the Weird Al version/parody lol

 

Ah shit I forgot..which reminds me...

It's was $4.89 for premium across the street at the 76 station. Fortunately Arco still has reasonable prices comparably

 

That's his best parody ever, got him in legal trouble with Coolio at the time too lol
