You just got that done. When did you receive the recall notice? That recall was done on my truck in like july last yr. You may need to talk to someone about getting recall notices sooner if you just got the notice.

can anyone tell me if this would have been the cause of my front axle housing cracks? I have a 2000 quad cab and the front housing has alot of hairline cracks and the axle on the passenger side is slid out about 3/4"......the dealer doesn't want to cover it under the warranty!
