In my opinion, no you didn't really get ripped off. I bought a set of 3.73's a few months back and took them to the cheapest quote that I could find. It turns out that one of my posi plates was broken and one of my axles was pitted pretty badly. I wound up paying $700 for installation of gears plus a used stock axle and bearings, etc. Basically a whole new rearend. That's not including the cost of the gears. Now that I read what you paid, I'm pissed because I didn't just go the route you did and just get mosers too. Just my $.02

Hmmm... did he jig the axle when he welded it? I suppose welding the tubes up then making sure the axle was true would add to the cost significantly. I didn't have my axle tubes welded, but if you count the fact that my axle was powder coated and the gear install costs 300 bucks those two alone account for 650 bucks on my bill
