Default good deal?

so went to 4wheel parts today and they are having a 50% off installation deal going on. so a set of 5.13s installed is gonna come to $1200. they use G2 hardened gears...does this sound fair?

Do they still have a 90-day warranty? Add the big upcharge of another several hundred dollars for the 'extended' warranty? And then some high school kid with one shop class under his belt does the install?

Do some comparisons of the labor costs, warranty periods and quality of work at several other places before committing...

Sounds a bit expensive if its 50% off. Although not in your area, Off road Evolution's website special for gears is $999.
