Default AL@CPT quoted me 160$ to install adjustable arms.? *QUESTION*>>

Roughly 2 hours to install these?! Is that a bit much?

He only charged me a little more than that to fix my entire suspension when I installed the coilovers.

I would do these myself but when doing the coils Ive learned to let a pro do it. For 1, im not sure how to install the adjustable ones and 2, last time i did everything somehow everything was loose even though I torqued it to what ppl said.

Default if he is doing an alignment too...that would be very fair>>>

if it is just the install, it is not over the top...IMO

Default not sure what you are expecting time wise...but 2 hrs seems >>>

not over the top by any means...how much cheaper can you go??? maybe 40$....seems to me the designer of the arms will install it correctly, and for 40$ extra it is peace of mind...just my two cents.

and a 130$ alignment is cheap too....i see no issue here...fwiw

Default that's reasonable... what you'd expect from CPT. they're not gonna F you around.

enough stuff has to come off to install those, that i'd think getting the job done in 1 hour would be pretty optimistic... 2 hours is certainly fair.
