So much easier with an impact though. Plus they're so cheap why not just pick one up. Less than $50 for an electric one.

My shop charged me $100 -- 1.5 hours labor.

Of course it seems everything is a little less expensive here in WV.

I was charged 250 from Cobb for the installation and 250 from muller for a partial alignment. Yeah not going to that muller shop ever again. Darin @ Westend alignment all the way.
