What is a fair price for a mechanic to change ring and pinion gears for the front and rear? labor only

$500 to $600 to do both f & r is what I'm being quoted around here for my bruggy.

Buy the book ... buy the tools ... learn how to do it yourself ... and after one or two you will prolly break even and learn a new and valuble skill :biggthumpup:

Same here. Sometimes I charge a little less if they bring me clean axles not under a vehicle.

I paid 800 for both front and rear and an arb install they both stripped and out of the car. You can probably get it cheaper down here the labor rate at my house is lot more.

Very true, but it could also be an expensive learning curve. I have seen people burn a set of gears up in no time from an easy mistake on the install.

I have seen axles that were set up by shops scream and explode. Not a job to cut your teeth on. It takes practise and experiance to do it right. The 9" is much easyer since you can put the chuck in the vise. The dana 44 is a bit more work.
