kilten_one Posted December 12, 2006 Author Share Posted December 12, 2006 I wanna work on your car..... $900!!!!!! geesh! Better find another mechanic! It was an estimate, he couldn't find anyone who sells steering racks so i pulled out the black dragon auto catalog i brought along just in case. I will be ordering a steering rack from them for $350 I figured that that would be alot easier on my wallet. total things i have to fix thus far: replace door and hatch seals, replace oil pan gasket and remove one small dent in the flange of the pan, replace gasket on the cover that sites behind the main pulley from the crank, oil change, tune up, address issue with left headlight being dim. The headlight issue is being addressed tommorow morning and the parts i need to deal with the others shall be ordered tommorow. I am so very glad its the busy season at work and I will be on alot of overtime pay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
