I took my car into JTS today to get my tires balanced. There was some shaking going on at about 50mpd so I thought maybe I had tires out of balance.
Well after they inspected my tires, drive train, shocks brakes, this is what they had to say.
Right front bearing loose - recommend new bearing / hub assembly
Right front strut is leaking- recommend new front struts
Driveline U joint at the rear going bad
Differential is worn (Rust coming out of it)
Not sure what they mean by rust coming out of it?
But they wanted $995.99 to do it
So I will be doing it myself.
I was just looking for any tips tricks, things to be sure to do. Part numbers, should I do other things ontop of what was listed. Any special tools I will need?
I have a feeling that my axles will not want to come out of the hub, based off the horror stories I read about having to cut them out.
Should I upgrade my entire suspension? I know I want to lower my car some to fix the wheel gap. My car will be sitting for a while so I want to do everything right fix it all at once.
Just one thing after another I tell ya
Thanks guys
