How much (typically) does it cost to have a new TC installed?? I know the prices vary between each shop but im just looking for a ballpark. A friend of mine said to expect anywhere between $800-1200 !!! I thought that seemed a little high but I thought Id ask to see what you guys were spending. Thanks!

damn I almost took the plung for a $500 tc thinking I'd get it installed with a few other things.. glad I didn't because im poor as hell right now and would shit myself when it got back to me that it ran me $300 plus to install only of my many parts lol.. glad I install 98% of everythign myself but I dont' mess with the auto transmissions so a higher stall tc will wait a while

Everyone has a buddy who knows how to wrench....show up with a rack of beer, offer to help or toss him a few bucks, and learn how its done. I do work for my friends all the time like this on anything from trucks to lawnmowers. They bring over some brew thinking they'll have a couple pops and watch me work. I toss them a set of gloves and we work together through the problem. Eventually, all my friends will know how to do their own shit and I'll have time for my own projects! The toughest part of a TC install is getting the heavy tranny and xfer case out of the way.

FINALLY FINALLY took it out for a bid yesterday after its full recovery from the fire :eyes: and I'll tell you what...selling it is a lot less appealing. I live on a dirt road off a dirt road so all I could get out of it was 2-3psi before it would go careening wildly out of control, but it was a great feeling again. Poor truck; its been through a lot in its short life.
