Default RE: cost of shocks for 944 t

Depends on the quality of shock you are going for. If you want a stock Boge/Sachs shock, figure about 90-100 each for the rears, and about 250-300 each for the fronts. Bilsteins are a much better option, in my opinion, and the cost is not that much more. The sachs shocks and struts I have seen completely shot after 5k miles of use.

Labor rates. About an hour for the rear and 3-4 hours for the front (book time), plus an alignment will be required (range will be from $150-300, as it requires a special tool that most shops will not have). This is where you get to see owning a 944T get expensive.
