I have heard anywhere from $200.-$400 depending on the difficulty. Sometimes taking 2.5-4hrs.
Anyone dealt with Big Daddy's in Lewisville?

If you are at all mechanically inclined you can do it yourself. Shift and steering cables are a pretty simple fix.

Steve, thanks, you nailed it. I think a couple hours is pretty reasonable I guess. You'd have to pay me more to do it.
Thanks Spanky. I already took it in to Big Daddys. They say $30 for the cable and 2-2.5 hrs install. I think this guy shoots pretty straight. Thanks again.
Bassman, yes but my a.d.d and lack of patience gets in my way.
I have slight rage issues also, and don't want someone else to have to work on it after I said heck with it.
Thanks Guys,
Steve
