I'm being quoted $900 labor to put it in (10 hours).

$900 to R&R a tranny?!?!? No way. They have to unbolt and remove the old one, bolt the new one back up and fill it with fluid. A rather simple procedure. Besides, they are charging $90/hr. That is outrageous, even for the more affluent/metro/whatever areas of the US.

Run, don't walk away from this guy. He may not be crooked, but he is definitely on a different planet than the rest of us.

There is someone out there that can get this done for you at a much better price.
