I'm pretty sure my rear shocks need replaced. I'm hearing a popping sound on hard acceleration. What is a good estimate for a shop to do this right now? I don't want to tackle this myself because of rust.
 
It's hard to say how much to replace them, the rust could be a non-issue or it could require some extensive repair work. But I'd do my darnedest to isolate that popping sound before throwing new shocks at it to possibly find that they're not the source of it. Could also be control arm bushings or even a bad track bar bushing. I'd vigorously wiggle and shake all those to see if any of them make a noise.
