First off the truck hit 100k last month

I need to get the tranny flushed and filled along with the brake system and coolant system.

How much should I be looking to pay for this work inc. labor?


Cheers!

I think a lot of people here will suggest that you do it yourself. Cheaper and more fun

It's a good chance to do an overall switch to synthetics too!

I would love to get it done myself, but a lack of confidence in performing such work, and serious time constraints as of late really limit my options.

So how about it? What kind of $ am I looking at?
