Price

Blackbeauty v601 · January 29th, 2008, 04:43 PM

I was quoted $570 for the install of my 4.10 gears, t-lock and shift kit. to me it sounds pretty high i was wondering what you guys thought.

shadow5403 · January 29th, 2008, 04:45 PM

with the added cost of the shift kit it sounds about right.

mmvi · January 29th, 2008, 04:45 PM

i dont know, a shift kit means dropping the tranny doesnt it? ive never installed one, but i know the gears and tlock are atleast 200 depending on where you are.

no just the pan i would say that sounds about right

AtlanticBlue99 · January 29th, 2008, 04:51 PM

got my 4.10s, t-lok installed for 200.

Blackbeauty v601 · January 29th, 2008, 04:51 PM

i thought it was going to be like 350-400 max

97TunedMustang · January 29th, 2008, 04:53 PM

Thats way to much unless its including the price of the tlok and/or gears

shadow5403 · January 29th, 2008, 04:53 PM

they are time consuming installs, thats why the labor is expensive.

Blackbeauty v601 · January 29th, 2008, 04:54 PM

no i got every thing online and they are just putting it in for me.

i paid $400 for install of my truetrac and 3.73's but that included synthetic rear diff oil, and the master bearing kit. Not the best price but not $570! i hope you can find someone else who will do it cause thats renutsculous

Juggalo_X · January 29th, 2008, 04:56 PM

probably have cost of fluids in there too.

Blackbeauty v601 · January 29th, 2008, 04:57 PM

oo true i didnt tell them i ha my own fluids

AtlanticBlue99 · January 29th, 2008, 04:58 PM

mine was with cost of fluids/friction modifier. i dont see the justification in paying 370 to have a shift kit installed...

shadow5403 · January 29th, 2008, 04:59 PM

prices are all area based tho. I paid close to 400 when i had my gears and t-lok installed. If there isnt alot of shop that can do that, places can charge whatever they want.

Blackbeauty v601 · January 29th, 2008, 05:00 PM

ok well i just called him back he said even if i have my own fluids the price stays at 450 for the gears and t-lock and 120 for the shift kit.

shadow5403 · January 29th, 2008, 05:01 PM

check around for a better price if you can, but you might be stuck. Anyways...is this palce giving you an estimate or a flat rate? Gears is a process and should be charged hourly...

GreenFaleen · January 29th, 2008, 05:41 PM

wtf??? gears and t-lok 250 tops, shift kit maybe 50 bucks. dont pay over 350 for all of it

95stangvert · January 29th, 2008, 07:02 PM

everyone has a different price because they all decide how much money their time is worth..it sounds high but there could be others who are higher.

Blackbeauty v601 · January 29th, 2008, 07:15 PM

i think im stuck its the only place in my area that i found that will do it.

Hey Green why do you make a new sig for the mustang, instead of the scion?

::end thread jack::
