LoL ... well, no offense, after asking several times for a rate/est on another install, and not getting a response .... wasn't going to continue asking.

PM me a price to install BMR springs and do an alignment for my 2010 SS.

FWIW: I'm still an ASE master tech but... I'm ashamed to say my suspension tools are still in MI.

I didn't think you needed any special tools, I thought I saw a list of tools needed. That's one of the reasons why I am contemplating doing this myself....

The only special tool you need is a spring compressor which can be borrowed from a local auto parts store.

But isn't required because the springs don't have alot of tension right? Of course I would need confirmation on this because I could just see me trying to do it without one and it slam down take a chunk out of the garage, smash my leg into bloody pieces and have my wife come out and tell at me for running the garage floor lol.

I have the 2LT ... I would assume your springs are the same as mine. And I did not need a spring compressor. Granted, there is a little bit of tension when removing the top nut, it wasn't enough for me to worry about. Just don't put your face in front of it, it will pop a little. And putting the new springs on, no sweat since they are shorter.

There's a youtube video I watched of an install, shows the install without using the compressor. About a minute forty in, you can see the spring pop a little.

The tools I'm referring to are my air tools and hydraulic spring compressor! I will not do springs without it regardless of "how little tension they seem to have", I can refer you to a buddy that had his jaw and upper palate broken because he didn't use the proper tools once!

With the proper tools it should only take a couple of hours for all springs and maybe a half hour for an alignment since it's mostly toe and not exactly rocket science.

Yeah I definitely say go rent a spring compressor.

Here's O'Reilly's tool rental...

I used the Strut Spring compressor, just in case.
