I'll make this quick as I'm about to go to work
Oct.21st - I hydro-planed on the hwy, and the driver side of my truck eats the median.
This Saturday I got her back. The jerks didn't align the new headlight,,my right blinker is out,,, the tire rubs the fender plastic at hwy speeds because they didn't push it all the way in (easily fixed,,but still!),,,and the biggest Mother F'n problem I notice is that my F'n left AXEL IS BROKEN!
My own fault for being in a rush that night - but go a month driving a rental Cavalier and you know how it is..... I can't feel the wheel wobbling,,,(the body shop guy who drove it back from the tire shop didn't feel it either apparently) My G-friend is the one who spotted it. I can't believe it.
..........So my question - I currently have 3.55 open rear end. The truck smashed up against the driver's side during the wreck,,,is there enough cause to have the differential and gears swapped out? - I can get the hook up for 3.92's and limited slip (dana trak-loc I believe? - the oem one). Does that sound like it's possible to have it replaced under those circumstances saying there's a good chance those components were damaged in the wreck?
I gonna chew some people out this morning,,,after I've had my coffee that is.....
