i dropped off my xj at a shop last week to have the following done....
r.e. adjustable lower control arms
r.e. adjustable track bar
sye w/ tom woods drive shaft
currie currectlync steering
alignment
1" lift shackles
i'm getting this done for a little under $3000.00, i don't think this is to bad...
i get a call today with these sugestions...
$705.00 = lower and upper ball joints-he says that mine are shot, that's possible i guess with 150,000 miles on it.
$300.00 = lower control arm brackets-he says that the one i had replaced was put on at the wrong angle, he's probably right.
$130.00 = sepertin belt-does it really cost this much?
$300.00 = front drive shaft-he says the ds has been completey compressed due to the 4.5" lift that is on it and it is so loose that you can move it around with your hand, i got no idea if he is right or not.
all of this is installed...
so what do you guys think? is this fair?
