RearEnd Rebuild

[moviewithnotitle]

Assuming the Axles and Carrier are in good shape (meaning reusable) & assuming the hourly rate of $120/hr. I should be looking at something like $1100-$1200. I know the rates differ based on region...and I will be checking out my local dealer for a quote.

Thanks Sunlit

you better assume looking for a shop that is not overdoing it on the labor rate.

I've started looking at other shops, including the local Chevy dealer. I hope to get more promising news shortly.

You can get the bearing and race pullers from autozone or Oreilly. Heat is your friend for this... I just redid my rearend on my escalade not to long ago. Took me prolly 5 hours and 1 hour of that was exchanging the bearings because the boob at oreilly grabbed the wrong ones. If it was me and I was changing to a different gear ratio I would be getting yukon gears and something other than the G80. Yukons are on the expensive side, but they are quality. 2600$ is pretty darn expensive. That's right about a quarter of what my escalade cost me to buy... haha
