Hello Jong:
I think the suspension work is always expensive. As I understand, whenever you replace the shocks, you have to replace the struts and springs. I am guessing replacing all the parts of your Saab's suspension will run you somewhere in the 500-800 dollars. This figure is considering that you do it yourself. The figure is high because I am considering that you would be getting the best of the best when it comes to part. It might be less. The entire process seems pretty labor intensive and requires that you have a nice garage space and various "job" specific tools.
Take a look at this site: http://www.lehigh.edu/~erp4/saab/Upgrades/B+GSpringsFront.html
While this is NOT the same year and model as your car, it will give you an idea to the complexity of the job. It is not a difficult job intellectually or manually. It is simple cumbersome and time consuming. To make matters worse, it requires special equipment. Hopefully this will help you make your mind about when/where to attack this job.
