I took on this task knowing I was going at it without any experience. I also wanted to do it just to see how it was done. The front was relatively easy and when done I drove the car one summer before doing the rear. I found the rear more complicated but slow and steady. When I was done I didn’t have my engine (still at rebuilt shop) so I couldn’t set height, align, etc. And 15 hrs quoted by the OP? No way for me - more like 15 weeks haha. But it was always supposed to be a project.

I eventually sent the car to the shop rebuilding my engine to have the experts finish the install and check through all of my work. My wife was quick to point out that she didn’t want my hobby killing me! I’ll feel far more confident pushing this car knowing it was put together properly.

Would I do it again, we’ll yes I think so, I know a lot more now.
