Why me?

Well, I just got my "stabilizer bearings" (I think that's the proper name) replaced today. My total bill was about $460 Canadian. The vibration is gone but they said my U-joints need replaced. Is there somewhere I can buy U-joints (used or new)? They want $250/piece. Yes, per U-joint. That is absurd!!! I need to sell my freaking car, and I need to sell it before I have no money left. So I just want to fix it and get rid of it ASAP. Let me know if anyone knows where I should look.

I say just sell it, if the buyer insists on a reduced price then so be it, that way you don't have to hastle with it all yourself and maybe not even loose the $$$ for repairs.

check out www.rcsr.com The mitsu # is 18006954700. They will definitely have the parts. they are a salvage yard that specializes in Mitsu. I went through them twice for frame parts. It takes about 7-10 days, but good prices and a 30-60 warranty on parts.

I owe about $13,000 (Canadian) on it, but I know I will never recoup that. I'm going to start asking $8900 CAD as is but I will go as low as $7500 CAD. Ouch. I'm so screwed. Car payment without a car.
