i am mulling over the idea of having my trans regeared (r+p).  my mechanic
in boulder, co quoted $600 for trans r+r, and $170 for the front diff.  i
don't know what his rate is, and he may be including a few dollars to cover
the storage of my van for a week or two, and for crating.  i'll probably
shop for a better rate, but's not like vanagon mechanics grow on trees, even
in boulder.
