I just finished putting a Rebel Racing suspension package (Stage 4) on my 86 911. I'm a complete novice at this sort of thing, but I had a friend helping me that is much more experienced. I'd estimate that it took us anywhere between 40-50 combined hours. Keep in mind, some of that combined time is me watching and learning from him. We did not install the new front sway bar since it's through body. I'll wait until I do body work to add fiberglass fenders etc. for an RSR look. We also didn't install the rear monoballs yet because it would have been a more work / time to remove the trailing arms. Most of the work was pretty straight forward, but there's always lost time for unexpected things and in my case trips to Pep Boys / Harbor Freight for tools / parts.
As mentioned above, the amount of time it will take you will depend on a lot of factors. Feel free to send me a PM if you want more information. I'm even happy to talk over the phone if you want to talk through how the process went for me. I will say that doing the work myself was a very rewarding experience and I'm looking forward to more projects on my car. I can also say that the car handled like a champ at Mid-Ohio the first weekend in April.
