If somebody said they were charging "x" to regear and install a locker how complete would you guys expect the install to be?

Is this a trick question? I would expect that you would have a locker and new gears installed. :idontknow:

I would expect it to be pretty complete. If it has a master install kit, bearings will be replaced. Seals are typically not included.

To find X, you must multiply using Y.

EDIT - Clay beat me to the algebra joke. [emoji23]

The amount of complete directly correlates with the amount of "X" here.

A guy was referred to me as a great guy to install gears and lockers. He quoted 840 for gears from and rear, 60 to install the locker and 100 to install my brake lines and bleed them.

I had already installed the twin compressor and switches installed.

I'd say so, or I have a rip off artist near me. I was quoted double that for gears front and back and locking only the rear with an Eaton E Locker.

I agree, when I picked up the jeep the locker was installed with no hosing ran, nothing was connected to the spod, I expected install to be complete. Am I crazy or?

From what I've seen, 1500-1600 is pretty normal for parts and labor for both axles with no lockers. ORE has a damn good price at 999.

I would consider routing lines and wires extra unless it was discussed otherwise to begin with. Running a wire properly can take a couple hours. It's easy but time-consuming.

I guess my question am I wrong for expecting air lines and electrical to be ran?

There are two things I won't do on a jeep, electrical and brakes

Yeah, when I'm ready, I may just bring Spider out to ORE when I'm visiting family out that way. Time will tell.

Ok, sorry for the hijack and thanks WJCO.
