I had a price for all 4 of these quoted to me in Iowa (in-law's home town) for $120 un-installed.

Over here in Chicago, I can't get them cheaper than $160/axel installed.

LOL - that's a $200 difference (minus my labor for installing them)!

I'm sorry, I just had to post this.

Ry.

actually, you must look at the labor cost..... out here, our shop charges $85.00 an hour for labor...... all in all the prices turn out to be about the same.....
 






i got 4 monroe reflex shocks for $99 + tax (total $105). i did the install myself. :D

but i bought them over a year ago.
 






Ft. Madison Iowa - which, if I remember correctly, isn't too far, right? Did you check out that temple in Nauvoo yet? Wow!

Alright leenjen, I've done my breaks and change my erl all the time, I've even done a Safari Bar - what do you think, can I put my shocks in?

Ft. madison is about two hours from me down on the old missip.There is a huge maximum security prision there looks like castle grayskull from heman:(
 






I got monroe reflex shocks for $120 and paid $100 to have them installed. I didnt want to be bothered installing them. 2 of them are easy but the other 2 I couldnt even see the mounts let alone get my hands in there.

just get a haynes manual and take your time. have a friend help if you want. it isnt that hard. i would rather do it myself then pay someone else to do it.

Yea, and they're expanding it too - using the exact same architecture for it. It's very very cool!
