What vehicle do u have Buy them at Repco and fit them yourself They come with instructions.

Took me an afternoon to do a 100 series cos I didnt have a hole saw to drill out the top of the spring tower to fit otherwise wasnt too hard. would have been a lot easier on a hoist I must admit rather than doing it on the floor.
You need a hole saw or a drill and round file, a pair of spring compressors. Axle stands, a jack and a will to get dirty.

IMHO moot point. By time you hunt them and make an appointment, organize someone to pick you up from them and drop you off to get your vehicle back you spend more time then doing it by yourself. Do not mentioned then sometimes they open/close not so convenient and you need to rip some time from your other tasks. Then if something gone wrong you need to visit them again – sure they fix it for free, but they never refund your time.

Steve,

TJM Megastores do them. $295 per pair plus $120 installation.

Got a set installed by TJM yesterday. Bloody good mate.

When I rang them to order a set, they even asked if I had raised suspension as this makes a difference to the exact model required.

For $120 I coudn't be bothered doing it myself. Took under 1 hour.

That must equate to an hourly rate of around $150.00, not too bad if you can get away with it!
