Anyone know what the RV shops would charge to install axle risers?

I've seen labor figures between $100-$200 on this and the rPod Nation forum.

I'm afraid I paid just a little more than that.  But I wanted the dealer to do it so I bit the bullet so to speak.

If the installer knows what he is doing, riser installation should not take more than one shop hour.
I installed my risers by myself and it took slightly less than one hour.  And I am certainly no mechanic.
Ask your installer his hourly shop charge.  If they take longer than one hour, you know to never use that shop again.
