Default Springs

Hey guys, i was wondering what was the average time to get your springs / coilovers / shocks installed? Lexus quotes 8 hours or something like that.

ummmm...mines S/S took about 4 hrs....if everything goes fine.

The 8 hrs is probably just a quote....Im sure it may be for 2 men at 4hrs each....cuz doing the suspension swap....you'll need an extra set of hands. You may just want to stick around while they install it on your ride.....get your stop-watch ready....plus...make sure they NOT fooling around while working on your ride.
