When the tire shop told me that the differential was bad in our F150 Super Crew, I didn’t know what to do. I had no idea who to take it to.
My co-worker, The Steel Trap, came to the rescue.
He called and got a rough estimate of the cost to rebuild the rear end from a shop that he had dealt with several times in the past.
They think they can replace all of the bearings (the things that are making the noise) for only $630!
ONLY!?!?…
I say only because it was initially looking like $1,300-1,500.
I took the truck over Wednesday night after work. I told them that this was one of our family’s main vehicles.
Right before I left work last night, just one full day later, the shop called me…
THE TRUCK IS DONE!
They rebuilt my truck’s rear end in one day!!! You just don’t hear of that type of service any more.
We actually needed that type of service.
I dropped my wife off at the shop this morning and then headed to work in Wild Bill. She then met my daughter at her summer school, traded the Super Crew for the Honda (much better mileage!) and then drove 3 1/2 hours out to McPherson, KS to pick up our injured son up before the team boarded the bus and headed to Fargo.
Whew! What a week!
