Bought mine from there, just called and told them I was a member and they gave me the discount on the phone. Along with other stuff such as rigids they're great to work with and ship fast.

 

Thanks man

 

I called he had them and gave me a 10% discount. I think 218 for the fronts shipped.

 

I'm half done with my install. Did the rears. Trying to find time to take the truck to a shop to get the fronts installed.

Anybody know what the normal install time is for a shop to do it?

And to anybody that has done it, I assume you got an alignment too?

*Edit, I've been thinking of adding a larger rear block, to keep some rake, and fit larger tires. If anyone has done this what did you go with?

 

They had mine all day at the dealer, that was front install, alignment, and oil change. Dropped it off at 8 and got it back at 6.

 

I installed my bilsteins after work one night it took me a couple of hours. I have done many sets prior and I also have a lift. A shop should only charge about 2-3 hours plus alignment to install the front struts.

 

I did most of my own work on the fronts. Not having a clue what I doing, took me 3 hours to get the driver side out. Took an hour to get the passenger out. However, the standard spring compressor you get from autozone, advance, oreilly's do not work.

I ended up taking my struts to the dealership and swapping them out took less than 10 minutes each and I got to watch.

As for shop time, I can tell you this. The quote I received to swap just the fronts was around $700 for the stock struts and labor. Struts were only about 150 of that.

And definitely an alignment will be needed.

 

Forgot to add that I had it all done for $300 at the dealer.

 

Anyone with the 1.5"or 2" setting is the ride any different. Or to the OP have you been able to tell in the ride difference since you have put them on?

 

Yes the ride is different, I have mine at the 2.25 setting and it rides more firm and sporty feeling. It has reduced body roll and brake dive.

To me it rides more like a truck should.
