Joan,
There are a variety of EVs being discussed in the forum, and I forget which one you have, but in most cases shocks are very easy on an EV. ?No special tools required that any decent mechanic wouldn't already have, no extensive disassembly/reassembly of other components. ?With a lift, air tools and an honest clock, I would think this is a half-hour job for most EVs.

Joan,
How much is he charging you to put the shocks on?
Also, does Steve work on Saturdays?
Thanks,
Alexis
