Looks like ten factory is popular for a reason.

Any other experiences with yukon? My shop is also a yukon preferred dealer

That should be for both and I would never pay that. That's way high. Right now you can get ten factory from northridge for $400 pressed and shipped. All you have to do literally is tahe your stock out and bolt these in which I promise you can do yourself.

That's not a quote for rear left and right. Closer to a quote for front and rear?

As noted earlier, $300-$400 for G2/TenFactory, plus maybe another $50 or whatever for pressing the bearings and inserting the studs. Then for the Yukons, add labor to cut the shafts to length. If that $800 quote is rear only, they are seriously bending you over for cutting them.

The ARB air locker is going in at the same time to match I assume.
