How much for Springs Installation?
I asked at a local shop that is highly recommended by other Mustang Owners around the area, and the estimate they gave me is about $700 for the installation of the Springs, the CC Plates and the Alignment, the parts (Springs and CC Plates) should be provided by me, does that sound right? Idk I think it is too expensive...

Around here most shops charge around $100 for the alignment alone, plus it's probably a 4-5 hr job to install the springs & plates, which around here labor rates are around $100-120/hr. So I'd say if a shop is quoting you $700, it might be a little high but I'd wager not by much.

+1 I do as much of my own work as well it's just such a big cost savings. To the OP, maybe you could find another local owner who would be willing to help you for some beers?

I can try that, but I am dumbass at Wrenches and I live in an apartment, so it would have to be a really nice guy to lend his driveway, time and tools for some beers and food... hahaha!

I paid $110 for mine to get installed. It was friend that owns a shop but they charge $150 for any other Joe off the street.
It's a pretty straightforward job and I would have done it if I had access to air tools. Good luck trying to take out the struts with a socket wrench. I'm 200lbs and pretty fit and I couldn't get it to budge.
Anyhow he did everything in a little over an hour, rears took 15 minut.
