$300-500 labor a diff. is common around here. idk why you guys prices are so cheap. my friend owns a local offroad shop around here so i get them for really cheap. but my friend got quoted $1200 for front and rear gears, parts and labor, on a 1999 tj. they will do it a lot cheaper if hand them the third member or axle out of the truck.
I think $150 per diff is for toyota or 9", where you can bring in an open carrier.
In the tj's with dana axles, there is alot more work involced changing the gears (you have to do it in the truck, unlike on a bench like toyoat) or you can take the whole axle out...
that's why it;s cheaper to work on toyota 3rd's (they're removable)
