Sways are about 1 1/2 hour install maybe. STB is trivial. LCB is also trivial (bolt off, bolt on).

yeah, installing sway will be from 1 to 1 1/2 hr at most. just need to make sure to put on enough grease, it's pretty straight forward. the stb and lcb they can't be any easier

I had my sways installed for $65 at a local shop. The STB is easy to install so they shouldnt charge you too much for it. If it is over $200 or so I would say they are railroading you.

Sways are easy to install....but if you dont want to get your hands dirty....take it to a shop.
