I got an estimate to install eibach lowering springs and alignment bushings on my 2021 widebody scatpak charger.they said $1650.00 for the labor.sounds kinda expensive to me.any thoughts?

Including parts? I was quoted $800 for lowering springs on my Scat Pack for just labor, at a fantastic place too.

Spring labor should be the same price as replacing all the struts. I would think 5.0 hours of labor on that.
You will need front adjustable upper arms to get it back in spec. And an alignment.

I did not need rear bushings to get the alignment back into specs on the rear.

Just for the labor

Wow. for four springs on all my buddies hellcats I only charged 400. Looks like I can comfortably charge double lol. Not that big of a job after 3-4 times it is relatively easy.

Do you have to drop the rear cradle on the Challenger? The guy said it was more because of that fact on Chargers.

ive only done challengers but I never had to do this, not even when I swapped my rear end.

No. There are videos of it being done on Youtube and a rear cradle drop isn't required.

No cradle for springs.... maybe for bushing, but I do not believe you need to do the bushings.
The rears are simple.
The fronts can be a challenge on the ground, but on a lift with a jack lift stand, easy easy.
If you do it on the ground, have both fronts or both backs in the air. Do NOT do one corner at a time or the sway bar torsion will try to break your fingers.......
