Question gear swap charge...

So, I called the local shop to get a price on a rearend swap. They want $1100 for parts and labor, with a 12 month/12000 mile warranty. Is that the going rate? It seems awfully pricey to me. They are the best transmission / rearend shop around here, but that's alot of cash.

yeah it would depend on what all is involved as to how far out of line that price is.

Most labor only for gears swaps around here is $300.
