are you asking the cost if you took it to a shop? or if someone one here would do it?

just take your shit off and take it to a shop and have them swap out the springs for you

i have a wall mounted spring compressor, rated for large truck springs so small auto springs are a breeze! good luck hope you get it figured out!

I have used the rentals to put sport springs on and they worked just fine.
