Pick up some tools and stop being lazy. It takes no time or skill at all. You will just get ripped for something you could have done yourself.

They do a great job and know their stuff. Not sure what they will charge, but you get what you pay for. Only had to take it back once because the a*** was sitting too low.

I did front shocks in the AU today, 2hours all up. Ok, so I know what I am doing, but download a manual, read up on it, your gonna need a few tools like spring compressors, a decent 1/2" socket set some multi grips and your set.
First time I did suspension it took a few hour and a few beers afterwards, was very rewarding to undertake and complete a mechanical task, it was one of my first modifications car wise, did go-kart stuff and what not before though.

Yeah I tackled the suspension in the NF at Easter, rears are piss easy, the fronts I had not dealt with struts before but managed with help, but if time is an enemy and you have the cash...... shame your not in Sydney Dave and I wouldn't charge too much

spring compressors are like $60 from supercheap, plus you then have a tool you can use over and over again. my spring compressors have been given a workout over the years, money well spent.
