Default t56 rebuild

ive been calling places around here to get my t56 rebuilt so i have a spare, does anyone know any places that are repuatable and wont charge an arm and a leg, ive been quoted 850-3500 for it. all i need is a basic rebuild with a new 3 or 4th gear syncrho and a 3/4 steel shift fork, hell i can even get the parts and just pay labor. if anyone could help me out i would appreciate it. btw im located in the south burbs of chicago.

A price less than a G would be pretty rare. I'd jump on a cheap price if the person backs their work up.

Its $1950 for our performance built T-56 which includes all new syncros, carbon fiber blocker rings, and steel 3-4 shift fork. Make sure you check out what gets replaced for what prices alot of places reuse your old syncros.
