Default C gusset install price...
I got a quote of roughly $370.00 for parts and labor. Not sure if that is a good price or not. It seems a bit high to me. Anybody with some insight?

Ok sounds good. I wouldn't pay no more than 100-150 for labor. Should be around 2-3 hours of labor

Thanks for the info and the offer. Wish you were closer. Guess I'll be making some more phone calls.

I would be interested? Do you have to rip the whole front end apart? can you do it with the ball joints installed or do you have to remove them?

It's best to remove them wen you do it because the heat from welding would melt the ball joints if you aren't careful. There are ways around it but removing them is you're safest bet.
