went for alignment, came out with a 700 estimate
so i go to the firestone near me, where a year ago i bought a lifetime alignment for 100.00. well i drop the car off around 10 in the morning, and i get a phone call saying that they couldnt not do the alignment, and that i needed 700 in front end work. i went to the shop and he told me i needed.. inner and outter tie rods on both sides and an idler arm. im not a mechanic but needless to say i told him to go pull that shit on someone else because i know how much work is involved with those jobs. i went home and checked my tierods. i only needed the outter on both sides and the idler arm was shot. i go to advance, bought the part for 68, and hour and half later i was done. they guy told me it was going to be 4 hours labor with close to 350 in parts, bunch of cut throats if you ask me... but i still have to go in for my alignment
