Preamble - Not a chance in hell that I have the ability, knowledge, tools or even a friend who could do this the inexpensive way. And I can barely retain all of the useful information that gets posted here. Sorry. So any advice beyond that would be very much appreciated.
2001 4WD
I have a history of inner tire wear.
--Do I recall from other posts that if my Control Arms need replacing then this could be a cause?
--If the camber/caster needs replacing would it also help in alleviating the inner tire wear?
--Are the Control Arms only for the front? (see above preamble before laughing)
--Understanding that there will be variance by shop and location, what would a ball park estimate be for having a shop replace the upper Control Arms?
--What is the average mark up on parts at a shop? i,e,. if the Control Arms cost $70 if I bought it directly what would a shop charge? Right now they want 235.00 per arm.
Ok, after 45 minutes of posting and editing I think that is as clear as I can get.
Any input would be appreciated. If you came and took care of all of this for me it would be even more appreciated. :haveabeer:
