Thanks in advance. Find another garage. Those prices are waaaaay too high. A rebuilt rack costs around $250, plus 4-5 hours work. As for the transmission lines, what exactly does he mean by that? There are no transmission lines... Take it to someone else, get a second opinion. If you need a new rack, then it won't cost you anywhere near as much as this guy says. Whatever you do, don't put any 'stop leaks' Return to Main Index
