Lex01_430 Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 all dealers mark up the prices especially for labor. my suggestion would be to check online (even ebay). i found dealers that sell genuine stuff at cheaper prices online. btw i bought a full drop suspension system for about 300. installation was about 200.

dukabor Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Wow i just called lexus and they said installed it would be 530 and the struts themselve cost 250, is that about right or can i find them cheaper. I just had mine done at a Toyota dealer. They just look up the part number and order them. How does 69.00 a peice sound ? labour was another $160 Dukabor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantheman Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Me too... After checking all over the place, i could only find replacement shock from 279$ to 325$ each (UAP-NAPA-CAR QUEST) so i deceided to call my Lexus dealer to see how they were, to find out that the original part were only 79.95$ each shock (canadian) and 115$ each for the springs. Very resonable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris6878 Posted March 16, 2006 Author Share Posted March 16, 2006 damn it. Lexus said it would be 500+ parts and labor and toyota say's $733. I guess i will be letting my personal mechanic work on mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
