Install cost on lowering my GT. Looking at the SR performance springs on AM but do not know how much it will cost to have it done at a shop or dealer. Anyone have a estimate from previous experience?

Cheers

I paid about $1000.00 for everything springs, pan-hard bar installed by the ford dealer

 

Cost me nothing except for the alignment. A few buddies, and i did mine in a afternoon. If you have any knowledge on tinkering with cars, it's pretty straight forward as long as you have all the tools. For me i didn't need the spring compressor, i could've, but easy enough to do without it, but the '05 plus need the spring compressor.
But to answer your question, call around to see what the labour cost is with the shops, and go from there. Do some sweet talking, and you might even get a cash deal.

 

Low unfortunately I am not that savvy when it comes to taking cars apart and don't have any buddies who are either. I will likely have to source some source some garage out and see what I can find.

 

I bought the SR springs as well. I was quoted anywhere from 30 minutes to one hour per spring per side. So anywhere from 2-4 hours depending on the shop and what they charge!

 

This is going to likely be my next mod so I will be looking around at some shops but want to have someone who works on Mustangs.

 

As long as you get a good quality reputable shop that has done lots of suspension, even if there main customers are not mustangs, it should be done well! Its really quiet easy to do it, I ended up not wanting to pay the 250-400$ in labor so I let my mechanical apprenticeship brother who's 17 years old do it, (was sketchy I admit) and we took our time and he did really really well lol, even did my shocks and struts while I had him down and dirty! Never had a problem to date!

 

So I made the purchase and went with SR performance springs and a adjustable pan hard bar. Good reviews and the price was good. Now I have to wait until spring to get them installed.


Is it April yet???

 

Hey Ghost what are you impressions on the SR springs? I see you have them.
