I was quoted $1100 for my 2013 last week - which should be very similar to a 2018. For the Bilsteins, Installation, and alignment. A little bit on the high side - shocks cost about $350, alignment normally $85 - so $665 in labor alone.

Yeesh! I wonder how much I would save installing the rear shocks myself and just letting a shop do the front install and alignment? It cant be more than an hour or two to install the front struts.

Have to split the upper control arm off, then swap the spring from the old to the new shock. I think I'd be surprised to see a shop quote under 2 hours for both sides on the front.

The quote I got above was for 5 hours of labor for install - so about $133/hr of shop labor.

MR G

Watching this video it looks like it could not be more than an hour for each front strut install. Maybe I am missing something?

Lol, that was on a pickup with 0 miles on it. Even with the flawless disassembly, I'd say you're going to struggle finding someone wanting to do it under an hour/side. Rears can be done in 10 minutes, both sides. Do it yourself.
