3 hours labor is a fair estimate. The worse thing a garage could do, is quote an hours labor, then find the track rod is seized, and will require more time (and possibly heat) to free up.

They're unlikely to call back to say it's gonna take longer, because you as a customer wouldn't want to hear it, so they'll have to swallow the loss. And no garage like working that way.
