Default spc camber kit and compression rod bushing install help

Hey guys, I got my spc camber kit and spl bushings few weeks ago. I was going to install them myself but after reading the DIYz I think I need some other tools to install them. I called up this shop today and they told me they will do it for 600...........(Robbing me?) So I was wondering if anyone here knows any cheaper places in san diego that can do the jobz for me.

return those spc a arms...total waste of time and too complicated. there are lots of other choices for a arms that are nowhere near as hard to install.

Vegas trip, my prices are a lot cheaper. $200 and you will need to get your alignment done somewhere.

Compression rod bushings are NOT fun to install at all.

Just a heads up, I called West Covina Nissan earlier today just to see what the labor cost would be to install compression rod bushings. The SA told me 379.00 including alignment; pretty damn good price if you ask me.

If you wanna make a trip a little north I can help you install everything. A lot cheaper than $600 also.

I'm a little late, but I might be able to help you...

My boy works at Kearny Mesa Infiniti and he charged $100 to install the bushings and align the car... He also got me a discount on the bushings which were like $30...
