Dear god! Those bastards. Incline? You are right by me. Did you go to Reno Toyota? Those commies have raped me a time or two as well. I recommend beer, and a lot of it!

Last time my axle seal went to crap it cost me:

$10 for 2 seals (1 for a spare when the other side goes out)
$30 for Valvoline Synthetic 75w90
$3 to wash all of the gear lube from the wheel, tire, & fender well.

Total $43. Did it myself. The easiest job I have ever done that I assumed would be tough.

way to rub it in!

WIth the $1057 left over you could have gone to the moonlight bunny ranch and had covassier, gotten in a fight, gone to jail and bailed yourself out. Id give those p holes at RT a piece of my mind.
