Look in the Suppliers Thread in the Stickies section of this site. Two shops in Melb that know their jeeps are USA4x4 and Poly4x4. Try one of them. I am SURE they will be able to resolve your issues for a lot less.

Seems a bit steep if all they need is a rebuild...

also try Wombat Offroad (ex ProComp) in Ringwood. They did my front diff (ratios and true-trac), and I know they have rebuilt/service other dana diffs from GCs in the recent past.

Yeah what Dan said.
Wombat did my diffs.
4.11's, Bearings & front lockrite.
Cost about 1/2 the price you have been quoted.
Great blokes to deal with. Almost makes it fun parting with your hard earned.

Tony at USA4x4 (Braeside) will fix those at LESS than half the price you were quoted.
