    Dude.... ask what their labor rate is and how/why they charged you that much. That looks like 8 hours labor for a 3 hour job to me.

    That’s what I thought. I thought I’d save a few bucks by going to this local place but I guess I should have just gone to the dealership

    I think you still came out ahead of dealer pricing, but I thought they would have been cheaper than that. (or else I wouldn't have pointed you there in the first place.)

    Ouch, that sucks. My passenger rear bearing went out last year and I said screw it and had them do both at the same time, that ran me just under $1K.
