I recall when Larry Stock was selling a polished ZF a couple years ago he relayed the polishing cost as $1,000, but as Mike said that was additional while the ZF was already apart for rebuild, so likely does not include the cost of disassembly and reassembly.

   additional while the ZF was already apart for rebuild, so likely does
   not include the cost of disassembly and reassembly.
