You want someone who knows what they are doing. I'm only familiar with older king pin tapered roller bearing Dana 60s say from 1990 and older trucks but if you are paying someone a hundred plus bucks an hour to do it right I'm guessing for all parts and labor you will be at six thousand pretty easily

If you only do the actual inner seal you can do it a lot cheaper because your only replacing a 50 seal but you have a lot of labor and usually if those inner seals are bad your other bearings, seals are not far behind. So it might not last. Just a good time to do everything if your keeping the truck.
I'm doing it on the ground and a shop would have a lift and all tools in the world so they would be faster than me.
Main thing is if they know what they are doing because if they get it wrong it will be more than a seal you will need after some miles
