Labor should be $100 or less, you can probably find a shop that'll do it for $70 or $80. Or find somebody that will do it on the side for even less. 98.5 SVT 91 Escort GT (almost sold) 96 ATX Zetec (i brake to watch you swerve) FS: SVT rear sway bar WTB: Very cheap beater CEG Dragon Run - October 13-15

We still have small tech shops that are between $60-70 per hr as well. 95 Contour GL. Bought new. BAT Sway Bars/Pioneer CD/Koni Rear Struts/Mobil Fluids.

That did include a strut tower being replaced, which I'm sure was more labor. $60 an hour isn't too bad though. Current Ride: 1998 Contour SVT - T-Red, Res.
