Default Guestimate on fitting costs

What do you think the fitting cost would be for:

Pads front & rear
Braided hoses
ALK
Rear ARB

...and before anyone says, yes it may be easy to some, but i've no tools/time/know-how.

depends where you take it, most place will charge you by the hour for each job so theoretically a minimum of 4 hours.

For a competent mechanic I would say between upto 3 hours but no more than 4 hours labour.

Depends on if a dealer £90phr or Scooby garage £50 between £100-£300 IMHO

IIRC It may meed 4 wheel alignment done after ALK

I just wanted to roughly know how much the bill would be, so i can save for it (*substitute save, for hide from those that check the bank statements)

I think i'll head to Dastek then, they do the alignment and seemed a good bunch.

Cheers all.
