Installing my 3.76 Torsen (Supra) LSD, new supra half shafts, PI TC and tranny cooler very soon. Got quoted around $900 for all from my shop...does this quote seem too high???

 

i think its sounds reasonable i paid 530$ for just my TC installed..

 

Thanks for the info bro. Anyone get both the LSD and TC installed @ the same time?

 

ummmm yes it does seem high.

 

How high? and why. The shop estimates approx. 12 hrs. of labor for the install of all plus all fluids.

 

12hrs is kinda high
at most would 6-7 hrs or 1/2 a day

 

According to the shop book which gives an estimated number of hours for the type of work, to replace a TC, it states 7-8 hours... depending how much the shop charges by the hour...

 

BTW his labor rate is only $65/hr and said after he sees all the parts he might be able to lower the install quote.

 

That's what I'm saying...my shop is going by shop manual standard labor times. He said it could be less time when he looks at all the parts. Right, 7-8 hours for the TC. Even if it's 6 hours for the TC they still have to install the LSD, half shafts and tranny cooler plus tranny and diff. fluids. You guys still think this is too high? I think the CL member Hameed got both the LSD and PI TC installed at the same time...maybe he can shed some light on the subject if he sees this thread (hopefully).
