Labor Time for Ball joints, Tie Rods, Brake Job (Front End)

Hey Scott, There is so much labor overlap on these that it will be a judgment call by your mechanic. I would have to see the car to be really sure, but I'd say 2-3 hours of labor plus alignment is a fair price. Labor in your area should be in the $80.00 - $100.00 per hour. How much are you being quoted for this job?

for the 4 tie rods, front brake pads, and 2 ball joints labor is about $426 OEM Parts will cost about $550.
