This is the email sent in response to my inquiry back in January. My core return cost $57 with UPS. I used an old King Shocks container so it could have been cheaper if I had used a smaller box. My total was $528 after it was all said and done after shipping costs. You may be able to find a comparable OEM price, but I dont think it will be any cheaper. Some listings I saw were well over a $1000. I like to do my own work but because of my age and 2 torn meniscus, I passed this one off to a local shop for just under $400 labor. Not a cheap repair plain and simple. This job is no cake walk so I don't recommend a cheap reman that might give you problems in the short term. Good Luck!
