just for the front about 2 hours if u work straight through on it and have the rioght tools but it well worth it. if uwant to save sum time have a local spring shop take off ur front coil springs and put them on ur new ones alspo make sure u mark the tops of the struts so when u pout them back in the fit nice where there was before took them out!L et me know how u make out, good luck, Sal

It doesnt seem like it would be that hard to do.

Theres a shop right down the road that will take care of the coils and struts for a very small fee.

I have to do this as well but want to keep the car original. Where can I get fronts and rears cheaper than GM?

I got my rear from autozone, I have just regular air ride. cost me $78.00 each. my old ones were shot. had holes all in the rubber parts. didnt do the front yet. didnt notice how bad they are.
