Just like i thought, more was wrong with it then i imagined! i might get it back tomorrow but now it's costing me more money. he replaced the lower ball-joint, tie rod, axle, and then we discover another problem. And the reason why i can't drive more then 2 feet! my motor is sagging hella towards the passenger side! Why is this u ask? because the idiot TINO JR. (DONT EVER LET ANYONE BY THAT NAME TOUCH YOUR CAR FOR ANY REASON NO MATTER WHAT HE SAYS! OR YOU'LL REGRET IT!) he didn't connect my rear motor mount and i think i might be missing an engine stiffner so whenever i put my car in gear it drops down and bends the axle! and because wrecking yards are closed for the day the guy at the shop is going to fix it tomorrow hopefully. So at first this was gonna cost $160 or something, then i found out the tie rod needed to be replaced, now after the first axle, tie rod, and ball joint came to $215.60 plus the cost of now the 2nd axle, 70 bucks schmucks special add that to it so now we are lookin at $285.60 and then tomorrow tack another $100 on there for another hour of labor minimum (he's knocking off like 60-70 dollars cuz he feels bad) That $100 is including the price of putting the 2nd axel in and fixing the rear motor mount. So hopefully, hopefully, my car will be fixed tomorrow and if i find this guy im gonna try and make him re-imburse me for some of this shit or im going to sue his ass if i can! grrrrrrrrrrrr i've spent too much money fixin his fuck ups! Sorry for the letter, had to vent  |
So hopefully nothing else is wrong with her other then what i expect which is axle, new balljoint and i might possibly have to have the brakes bled and re-filled but other then that i hope she will be running like a champ. Might have to replace her battery too. But if all goes well i will keep her and lower it and then save for a secret motor swap 
Good luck. Keep us updated.
