I thought that out of the per hour deal the mechanic gets a percentage of that. Had to replace shocks on wifes car, dealer wanted $220.00 to change both rear shocks. Asked why so much and was told that the mechanic has to do the job by hand, no power tools at all. I changed the shocks in 30 minutes so saved that money. Was told that the mechanic gets 40 Percent of the labor, which would have been $88.00 for 30 minutes of work. They get the price out of a labor guide. Also some of that money has to go to obama care.
