That sounds pretty reasonable depending on competence level. I tend to work
slower because of numerous alcohol/smoke breaks, and it took me about 30
minutes to do my fronts and about 45 for the rears. You have to take into
consideration that I have "geek hands" and was taking my time to avoid
hurting myself. When I did stuff like that all the time, it only took me
about an hour to do all 4 shocks on my Dak, and that was on jacks in my
driveway. This last time I had access to a rack.
