Wow that's called a rape.
My local shops quoted me $600. The dealer wanted about $900.

I bought a tranny jack at harbor fright for $100 and orded the new TOB, retainer clips, and grease for $75. $50 for new tranny oil, And did it myself. It was a huge pain in the ass taking it out (did not bought the tranny jack before) but its do able in a home garage and good tools.

If you have access to a lift it's way faster/easier. Leverage is the key. It's a pain in the ass trying to brake loose the drive shaft blots when your laying down.
