Thats to buy and have them installed, I am already buying them, I just need them installed...

It looks easy, just as long as I had the tools, I don't know why someone would charge so much for it.

yeah they were going to order adn install for me. so if oyu subtract the cost of the springs it would probably come out to like 160-180 for installation.
