The cost is going to be labor and will vary among repair shops. If the repair shop has the proper equipment, in real time should not take more than 2 hours, book time will be slightly higher, 3.8 hrs by Mitchell Labor Guide. So you just need to multiply by the shops shop rate, In our shop its $60/hr, so we would charge you $120.00 labor. Some shops don't like putting in customer parts and charge much higher - so beware of that. And in some cases parts get broken because they are rusted and need to be replaced. I would suspect you will have to install new Sway Links, since its common for them to break upon removal, they are inexpensive - around $10-$20 which would include both sides. Hope this helps.......Pete

Connecting Rod's are VERY SPECIFIC for each engine. In Addition to getting the Right STROKE, Piston Pin Size, and Crankshaft Size, you need to make sure to get the Correct Bearings for the Crank. If you are not going to remove the Crank from the Engine, your BEST Option is going to be Purchasing a NEW Push Rod.

Does it not start or not crank ?Do you see a security light on the dash ?

You may want to just replace the engine. If the main bearings are wore out the rest is close behind.

pull the engine as there will be journal damage to the crank from the lack of oil. Have the crank professionally checked at an engineering shop. The lack of oil will have affected all parts needing oil ,not just the main bearings.
