So as someof you know that my car was having problems getting the driver side axle to turn,
The tranny shop 1st said that some bearing on the transmision is bad so the cv axle isn't sitting there rite to recieve power Later he said that my differential needs replacement, he should the differential today and one side is completely smooth while the other is worn out. I asked him if we can just replace that one side like a mini rebuild e said no I'm just making sure that what he said makes sense . Is it worth paying 600 for the job? (Since he started the job I owe him 300 if he doesn't do anything and out the car back, 400 if he replaced really bearing he was talking about. 600 for new differential and all) Also what bearing is he talking. About anyone know? -------------------- For Sale:OEM tail lights - make offer

then you are stuck with the 600 bucks bro...
because if you owe him 300 its only 300 more. whereas if you take it to another shop, then start over again. sorry. remember labor is 75 t0 90 bucks an hour... that in my book is average.l a clutch job was 1200 when i was quoted. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...
