I'm dropping the driveshaft in the 244 and having the 3 U Joints replaced and a new center support bearing pressed on. I'm bringing in the parts from FCP. I've called a local machine shop and asked about the cost to which the owner said, "I'll have to look at them to give you a total." Which to me means, "I'll have to see how much I can get out of you ???."

What does this job typically cost? My father and I have pressed bearings before, it takes 10 minutes and very little effort. What about the joints?

Any real life cost totals would help. I don't want to loose my shirt over this one.

Thanks,

WB
