What sounds like a reasonable price to change the U-Joint bellows, gimbal bearing, and shift cable on a Bravo III?

Labor only ....

Thanks

Default Yep!!

But hell - who has time for it now. I'm busy as all hell with the dealership - then I got a 23 ft Center Console for helping someone out - got the divorce done - still trying to sell a house - and riding around with everyone else in nicer rides!!

LOL!!

You still up north? did you ever sell yours>?

The bellows and bearing should be a 2-3 hour job. The shift cable can be an hour on top of that but can also be another couple of hours if it has to be drilled. There is no way to tell if it needs to be drilled until you try to remove it. I'll guesstimate the job at 300-500 in labor.
