I did think that was a good deal, after ordering a spring and the tool with S/H it would be more than $20 and then I'd have to install it also. This guy does know his stuff and probably is very good. I just thought I'd share the overall experience with you all and as it seems it is not that uncommon for such a shop. Wow the Corvette repair world is real interesting.Big%20smile

Ditto ..... PITHA is nothing compared to how that springs can work on your patience.... Small space.... limited installation knowlege = increased frustration levels....
