the price quote you got for $240 sounds about right. you should expect to pay anywhere between $200-$300 for the install

Yep, and he'll do it right too. I did it myself, but with some help from Rob. it's easier than you think, but I don't think I could have done it the first time without advice from someone who knew what he was doing. Now I've done it a few times for friends, and I'm getting faster.

This is a little premature (because I don't have the time right now), but I might be selling my SS kit over the Winter break. It will be for cash plus the buyer's stock suspension, and I will do the swap installation for FREE at my house. Or split the cost of using RRM's shop space if he'll let me.

That's right, I'm about to do a "going back to stock sale" so if anyone wants any of my mods except for the catback, let me know. But I'll probably make a post in the private/for sale section when I am ready to spend time with wheeling and dealing.

Ok, so I still take a half hour scratching my chin trying to remember how to get the rear control arms low enough to remove the shocks. But honestly, you're in Irvine, so the extra 3 hours of driving you would have to do to get to my house means RRM could have it installed before you even get to my house!
