i just had my transmission go out on my 89 4x4 overdrive subourbon. 1.466.86 was the damage. was told by several sources here in camas that my bill was very reasonable. one place qouted nearly 2000$. don't know what you got, but look into wrecking yards. the problem with this is it too may go out within months of putting it in. while a overhaul comes with warranty and is considered new. bottim line.... transmissions are a big bite in the pocket book.
