Yeah it doesn't seem too far off to me. Labor seems about right, new hubs/drums, bearings, backing plates/brakes, actuator and lines...x 6. If that is what was replaced, then I don't think you got a deal, but I also do not think you are far off from fair. Maybe a few hundred dollars. All those parts add up fast.

I'm picking up tomorrow and will post the parts list after...FYI this was a full rebuild of everything, authorized without estimate first...TRUSTED.
|
What were you expecting to pay?
|
If you like the trailer to begin with and it stops like he says it will, you will forget about the money when you avoid your first soccer mom that cuts you off.

Ya it depends on what all was done, how bad were things rusted up, etc., can't say what it should cost without all the facts, need a lot more details.
Most All repair shops around here charge $85-$95 per hour. |

I get the call it is done and the bill...$2938! Yep, almost $3 grand and the value of the used trailer itself. The owner said the best parts were used (something about nickel plated lines at $36 a foot?) and that the trailer is now basically new and would go another 20 years the way they rebuilt it. $75 an hour labor at 12 hours. So, for those of you who have done a complete rebuild of the mechanicals, does this sound about right or way out of line like I feel it is, even if this is in New York?!?! :picard1:
