My current woes

[That911guy]

So i finally had the money to get some new tires. Went cheap with the Goodyear Wranglers. I knew i needed an alignment because of the way the old ones were wearing. So i take the vehicle to Sears since im at the mall. They tell me both my lower ball joints are shot, then quoted me like $600 for the work. Long story short i called around when i got home and found a local shop that is only charging me like 175 for labor. So maybe after this little bout my vehicle will be ready to go for a while.

This sucked. lol

$600! That's just insane. How much was labor?

 

[That911guy]

Like 450 or so I think.

WOW! good thing you called around.

Total was 250 at a local shop, after tax. Sears was gonna charge 52 per ball joint, my local shop was 26 per ball joint.
