Angry Bad cylinder

How much should it cost to do a bad piston on a 2006?
The truck is in Mesa AZ
Also how hard is it to pull the pan and head to put one in?
Thanks Clifford
oh does any one know a shop down there.

heads easy, but i dont think you can get the pan off without lifting the engine a few inches. I havent had to take mine off yet but it shouldnt be to bad a trick. I have no idea how many hours your looking at.

If the piston went, chances are the cylinder is in bad shape also.
