Call a Ford dealership & tell them what you want done. They will give you a free labor quote, make them think you want THEM to do the work.

ok... guys, do you know how long in hours the shop charged you for? How much in total you guys paid doesn't help much... I know what the parts cost, it's the labor itself that's scaring me, lol

I did my own... however i got quoted. Every shop was over 500+
