Each front Bilstein is about $79.99 (B46-2284), each rear is $69.99
(B46-2285/2286) at Autozone. As far installation if you bring the
parts it's usually $50 per corner. If you buy the parts from the
installer the rear shocks may be installed free during promotion.
Other rubber parts extra.

Based on the above, $300 parts + $200 labor + tax.

I do not know what you will pay, but you will like them.

$50 per corner? Ouch.

I had Rancho 9000s installed on my '81 Jeep CJ5 for $10 per corner. I get
that leaf springs are easier to work around, but you are saying that the
difference in one corner covers the entire job on my Jeep. The seller did
the install, maybe that's what you said ...

Shocks are a knuckle-buster job, that's for sure. After the bandages, it's
not that tough.

The rears are a snap, but the fronts require removal of a loaded coil
spring.

The rears are shocks these are cheap to install, often FREE if you buy
the shocks say at Pep Boys or Firestone, etc. But they charge an arm
and a leg for the parts so you end up with a bigger bill.

The struts/coil-over types are more expensive to install. The street
price for installation is about $50, if you install at the place that
sells them, sometimes $30 with purchase. And you may still end up with
a bigger bill.

Bilsteins are great (Touring, HD, Sport different levels of firmness).
That's why the tuner circle nicknamed the cheap OEM KYBs "Keep Your
Bilsteins"!!!

I know that. It is still not a difficult job. I did shocks on my daughter's
02 Tacoma PreRunner. It was easy.
