is this too much $$$??

[sleeper97]

I had to buy two new rear tires the other day because the inside tread had been rubbing so bad with my 2" drop that it caused my tires to buldge and almost explode because the tread was worn off so bad. Anyways I'm going to get camber kits installed both on the front and rear and they quoted me at around $400 installed for both camber kits. And thats $120 bucks in labor! Does that sound reasonable? Thanks.

install them yourself and go have it aligned. if you are talented you might be able to do the front in like 30 mins. you can make a rear camber kit yourself and not have to buy one also.

I installed my camber adjusters myself. I think the parts were under $200 for the front and the rear. Most shops I know charge around $60 an hour for labor - so $400 installed sounds reasonable if that includes the parts.

I think that the $400 is only for the fronts installed. I think its too much becasue the kits should be less than half of that.

It sure sounded like it was for both front and rear to me:

$400 for both is reasonable.

No problem - we all do it occasionally ;-)
