i'm planning on gettin gears and suspension in the near future..i cant do these myself..how much does a mechanic "usually" charge for either of these installations?
I had my gears put in for $240. I have an auto, and I wanted a tuner, so I got a diablosport for about $390. The diablosport does so much more than just the gears, so I don't know weather to include it or not.
My shop did a great job too. I have barely any gear whine at all. The only time I hear it is when I'm going 35mph through town, or when I'm barely touching the gas at 65mph to 70mph. So, basically, I never hear it.
Suspension on my camaro was around $375 I think. That was just labor, and I got Eibach springs. They were around $250 I think? Can't really remember. It seems you can get mustang springs, Ford ones at that, for a whole lot better of a price. I'd think you could get a better deal.
$400 is not bad i guess i'm gettin a blower hopefully in the summer so i'll have to get 373's but i might j/ do the suspension myself as long as i have the c/c plates i should be alright...neone put them in themselves?

Don't pay any more then $200-$250 for a gear install. Thats pretty much the going rate. As for the Springs, not a hard job at all. The backs are easy, but the Fronts can take some time. JUST BE CAREFUL if you are doing this yourself for the first time. Those springs are under ALOT of tension and can SEVERLY hurt you if they fly out.
