outer tie rod and front strut repair cost

[brandonjustice93J30]

I just got my brakes and headlight relay fixed and in the process they discovered my left outer tie rod was damaged.

To replace both front struts, left outer tie rod, rod bushings, alignment and labor they want to charge. $374.53.

Anyone think that's a good price?

Doesn't sound to bad .

Might as well replace all the rubber stuff while they are in there. Bump stop ect ..

Are you sure you are not missing a Zero in the quote. the parts alone are more then the price you were quoted. New struts are $250+ each

[yodawill2000]

Oh yeah .. Forgot to mention ..Been using the Velocity 1000 here at the corp office.Goes through Bulbs pretty quick huh :O)

Joe at everythinginfinti sells all 4 for 580

yeah..I think it's like 250 hours or something crazy like that and they are $125/lamp I think to replace.

and no that was the complete quote...they were able to get me rotors for $30 each

[brandonjustice93J30]

it's actually $123 per lamp for the columns and $211 for each shoulder lamp and all need replaced every 300-500 hours.

$32000 bed that requires $2600 of lamps about every 3 months

Man I wish I could find a deal like that in the DFW area.

I'm just hoping they dont act like the last rotors I bought from a shop here in Indy, I think I paid upwards of $70ea for those though.

However from what the shop at my Mom's house was saying, they said the rotors on the back were rusted to the point they couldnt be machined. Supposedly the shop here replaced those about than 6 months ago.

Kinda makes me wonder if they replaced them or not.

Always ask for old parts back. Then you don't have to wonder.
