1 Shock absorbers or struts can cost $25-$350 or more each, depending on the make and model of vehicle and the quality of the part.2  Although it could cost as much as $1,400 for a set of four, most do-it-yourselfers spend an average of $150-$250 to replace four shocks/struts. Replacement of four shock absorbers or struts by a professional mechanic takes an average of two to five hours at $50-$120 an hour.
Gas shocks look identical to hydraulics, but when you compress them and let go, they quickly return to their maximum length. On the car, gas shocks do the required damping with ease and add a constant force to the springs, keeping them from sagging. I found the front shocks for about $30 apiece (KYB brand) at the local imported car parts specialist, but they did not have the rears, and could not even order them.
