We can do the uppers for $971. I hate to bring this up, but how much power are you running? Might be time to consider new upper gears too. You should also give Chris a call and see what he has. I don't have any rebuilt drives at this time, but it might be a better way to go.

Be sure to price the reassembly and setup before commiting to just buying new cases. I had a quote of $400 each just to reassemble my lowers that I had apart. With you considering 2 cases, both needing reassembled, shim kit and new seals, it might pay to buy a complete rebuilt or a slightly used drive.

What he said, it can however make sense if you are doing the work yourself.
