How many professional install hours for:

[SoulSwimmer]

Trying to get a handle on rough labor hours / costs to get the following installed and aligned.

1. Ford Racing 2015-2016 Mustang Track Strut & Shock Kit
2. BMR 15-17 S550 Mustang Caster Camber Plates
3. BMR 15-17 S550 Mustang Handling Version Lowering Springs SP083
4. BMR 15-17 S550 Mustang Front 4-Point Subframe Chassis Brace - Red
5. BMR Suspension 15-18 Ford Mustang S550 IRS Subframe Support Brace
6. BMR IRS Cradle Bushing Lockout Kit
7. BMR Suspension double adjustable toe rods
8. BMR 15-17 S550 Mustang Rear Lower Control Arms Vertical Link
9. BMR End Link Kit For Sway Bars
10. BMR Suspension front and rear adjustable sway bars

Also as a newer forum member, any way to get a BMR discount on this stuff?

Thanks for your help.

I don't know the amount of hourse, but for installation of Ford Performance Magnaride Handling Kit (spring and bars - I also wanted camber plates but front springs require taking strut apart so replacing mount with camber plate isn't really added work) and Steeda subframe support bushings I was quoted $900ish by two different shops.
So I've done myself... Some of these really don't add any work - like camber plates or sway bard endlinks (they will be removed anyway during sway bar replacement and strut disassembly).

Rough guess would be 8-10 hours. Most will say about 4 hours (shouldn't actually take that long) for regular springs, shocks, struts which covers 1, 2, 3 on the list. 6 is tacked on at that point too. Disconnecting the end links makes dropping the rear easier and sway bars then too. No idea how long toe rods and vertical links take, I know the 4 point brace is a bit more involved to install than others so throw an hour for that too.

So ballpark $800-$1200 for the install, depending on labor rates. For a shop rate of $125 (higher end), 8 hours is $1000.

Don't forget to budget for alignment and clocking all the bushings too.

Here in Florida at least, just for the track pack I was quoted $1375 and thats including an alignment.
