$110.00 To Change Rear Pinion Seal

Noticed a mild leak on my 8.25. Called my local dealer and they said $110.00 to change out the pinion seal, total cost OTD. Does this seem right? Sounds kinda cheap to me. Just wondering if they are gonna do it RIGHT for this price.

Any input appreciated.

It does sound cheap. I would assume they have to warranty the work so whats to loose?

20 dollar seal 0.9 hours labour ($70-110) according to alldata.... sounds about right...

Sounds good...I initially called some independent shops in my area. Most wanted > $200.00 with one shop wanting $250.00. I am not used to the dealer being cheaper.

Thanks for the input.
