Description of the problem | I was driving down the road when all of a sudden my front end started to shake violently, i started to slow down but it didn't help until i came to a complete stop . I then heard light grinding coming from my front left side of truck. Before i could make it home witch was about 10 miles, the grinding and loss of steering had got so bad that i was driving 5-10 miles an hour. Barely made it home. The next morning i drove it to the best service shop in town which was 1/2 mile from where i lived and it took them a month and $1700. 00 later to repair. Front axle,front bearing,calipers, a new disc and brakes,a front nuckle and drive spindle for the 4 wheel drive. |
