According to Motors/Alldata it takes 1.9 hrs to replace front springs and 2.6 to replace rear springs. = 4.5 hours

Lexus of kendall is probably 130/hr theyre asking 7?8? lol

if you dont want to do it just go to your local independent tire shop and ask for their quote. 4.5 hours at 75/hr = $337.50 labor

If you can change brake pads you can take on replacing springs. Ill do it for 300

I'm looking to get some new exhaust soon, so I'll just do that and all the suspension at one time when my brother is in town. He's done this kind of stuff other cars before, so I'll buy him some beers and we'll make an afternoon out of it. Hopefully it won't be too bad.

The cheapest place to install them is in your driveway.

Ding ding! But not everyone has the tools though. The know-how should be pretty common sense, but the task could be monsterous to some.

Well it would still be cheaper than installing them at the dealership. If he's all about pinching pinnies I say he man up and do it himself.
