Anyone have access to the Toyota Labor Time Manual?

Looking for the official Toyota labor time to replace the 2 front CV Axles on a 2000 4Runner...thanks.

Both axles 2.0, 1.5 warranty time.

This is from AllData

:fishing:

I have alldata as well, and it does show 2.0...but the dealer is telling me 2.3...just wanted to see if that was correct...

May seem like a minor difference, but at $110 per hour its about a $40 difference...

I'm sure they don't use Alldata, probably Reynolds and Reynolds or the Mitchell. And they all vary slightly. Point is the difference is $33, if that is a deal breaker take it to an independent shop.

Good on ya for trying to keep them honest about it. Is it possible that there's a complicating factor they need the extra .5 for, or did you ask?

I just emailed them and asked how much to install 2 new CV axle...labor only since I have the axles. They quote 2.3 hrs.

The extra money is not a deal breaker, just trying to figure out why they (hour wise) are always slightly higher than what I see in alldata.

Is there an official Toyota time guide or do all dealers use a 3rd party guide?

Thanks
