well first off what are you getting. $2000.00 is a good price for the full kit but @ $42.00/hr. for 8 days work it sound like the $2k is for the install alone, you can get a kit for that and take a weekend and do it yourself.. If you can remove your struts and springs then you can easily instal the air ride system yourself. Believe or not the only time consuming part is running the airlines cleanly and wiring up your valves. PLus the benefits of doing it yourself is that if there is any problems with the system you now know how to diagnos and fix it yourself.. Kev
