Default How many hrs to repair a TC

Hey guys I have my TC out and I can not dismantle it as I do not have the right tools and they are not availble where I live. Therefore it needs to go to the mech tomorrow and I want to know how long it should take him so I can work out my cost. Anyone who has done please let me know?

Regards A

To the Mechanic who knows what he is doing a Jeep Transfer is a 2-3 hr job, if that, the cost depends on how you sourced the case, $90 an hour labour thereabouts, plus what you paid for the Transfer Case.
If the mechanic sources his own, you may pay between a couple of hundred dollars or a couple of grand.

What's wrong with the case? Is it a 231 or a 242?

I'm pretty sure he has a 242, it's a 98 model from my bad memory
