I would say yes, that is fair when comparing to other shops/dealer for that type of work.

Shoot, that is a bargain for the rear shocks alone! (they are horrible)

I would say that it would be,

A normal service station around here charges $55 an hour so 4.5hrs to do all that work.

Doesn't sound that bad to me but I would do it myself and spend the 250 on something else.

Yeah, thats very fair! If you took it to a TOY dealer it would be in excess of $500.
Bilsteins 2.0 - 3. 0 hrs @ roughly $$55 -$70 labor = $110 - $210
L.springs 4.0 + "" "" = $220 - $280
Complete Brake job = 3 - 5 Hrs = $165 - $350
Recharge - 1 - 2 hrs = $55 - $140
Do the math! You got a screaming deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks for the quick feedback guys, i'm getting it done through Paul over at TLC here in San Diego. i'll post some before/after pics after i get some new shoes for my truck. most likely the 265/75/16 bridgestone a/t revos. i have the bfgoodrich a/t's right now, but they suck nutz in the rain. if i was still living in sd it wouldn't matter, but moving back to the bay area so eh...

Well it doesnt rain that much in the bay. Just real foggy. That's a great deal you're getting for all that work. Good idea getting it done down there before coming to the bay because you would get seriously ripped off here. Wish I could find someone do all that work for that price.

Ugh sucks to be poor on this board"

I dunno but I don't see 98 Limited 4wd and poor in the same genre.

Just kiddin ya, like the rig man and give it time and money will come.

I had my shocks/springs done at Brakes Plus for $150 and that included an alignment but it helps to know people too.
