Replace struts & shocks

Been shocked by price of $1000 to replace front strut assembly and rear shocks. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Dennis

 

Dennis,
Yes, that quote is indeed outrageous. The rears on a first generation are really easy to do yourself. Does that quote you just gave include the front coil springs?
Good Luck,
Paul

 

If you have the tools and time this is a job you can do in a day or two. Depending on the shocks and struts the parts alone could cost between 400-... A lot. If your thinking of lifting her now would be a good time. If you look around theres a lot of posts that can walk you through the job.

Let us know what you decide. Honestly 1k for parts plus labor isnt too bad. Theres a bit if work needed to do the fronts. Backs take ten minutes each.
