Springs, shock absorbers, swaybars,
Brakes, Wheels and Tyres

I'll soon be getting a new set of springs, and was just wondering what I'd be paying for installation and alignment.
So far I've been told I'd be expecting to pay from $100 for fitting and $80 for alignment to $400+ for fitting and alignment.
So, anyone care to shed some light?

$400? That's on the pricey side. But the average I've seen is $250 for the install and another $60 for alignment.

What do you reckon is a fair price to replace a big end bearing then?

Ask Kurt. He should know intimately about replacing big end bearings.
