Those blocks look interesting, but they do not include the bump-stop "arms."

 

Can anyone else comment on what they paid a shop to change out these spacers?

I went to one place and he quoted me "2-3 hours of labor, about $200-300". Seems rediculously high, considering how many people here are saying it's an easy job for a shop.

 

 

As I posted earlier, I went to a commercial spring shop. Actual labor time was less than 15 minutes. They didn't even charge me for that. It took them a few minutes to make the new U bolts. They were $14.95 each. These guys work on big heavy trucks. They know what they are doing. Try a commercial spring shop if there is one in your area.

 

Mine took about 30-40 min and they charged me around $90

 

I did mine in about an hour myself on the floor in my garage.

 

Took me about an hour and a half on my driveway. With that being said, it's a fair amount of manual labor. The U-bolt nuts have some serious torque. Had to use a pipe on a 24 inch breaker bar to get them loose.

 

I talked to shop about labor to install because I don't have the tools and I'll bring the parts, the guy told me they can do it but will be a hard ride because the suspension will be compressed
Is this is true? Is a big difference on a 350?

 

it should be a bit softer - and others have reported such

 

Ok thanks. The only part that I need it's the u bolts for the 350

 

I'd go somewhere else because that guy sounds absolutely clueless about leaf spring suspensions.

 

That guy is clueless or doesn't understand what you want done.

 

They do lifts in there but he was the guy in the counter but I'll look somewhere else
​​​​​​​Thanks

 

I will assume you just want to swap out the factory blocks with shorter ones. Local tire stores may do this.
