Default Help - 2gs steering rack pinion bushing kits

I have the Steering Rack Pinion Bushing Kits thats supposed to be installed by my friend but he got sick & couldn't do it. I asked around & most mechanics want $80-$140 to install it. Is it a fair price?
I appreciate your input & experience. Thanks

For reference, I was charged $100 to have mine installed by a local reputable Lexus mechanic. Yes it can be done by yourself, but I had neither the time or resources to complete it myself. Hope this helps.

One hour shop time maximum. If they tell you more then go to the next shop.
