If you need upper gears add another 2 grand per drive. All seals, propshaft bearings, split line o-rings, drive oil, etc run about $350 per drive. Assuming you have a twin engine application and you are refreshing both drives, you can often swap the lower gears from one drive to the other as they only wear on one side. That saves about $1,800 a drive. If you need to overhaul the whole drive of all parts, figure $7,000+ per drive. If you need just seals, etc (no gears or propshafts) figure $1,350 per drive.
