Have an estimate from a local garage but I think I am being overcharged for the parts and labor

The cost of repairs varies with location-Parts could be $200 plus and Labor-1.5

Autozone lists the axle shaft for $60 with a $75 core, which you get back when they get the old axle back. The front wheel bearing on a 4WD Vitara lists at $50. I'd say about 3 hours for labor. Typical labor rate around here is $100 a n hour.
