Question Hello San Antonio

Can anyone here recommend a repair shop. I am about to finish destroying either a CV joint or wheel bearing or both. And would like to get it repaired before it becomes more embarrassing particularly the way I drive.

Re: Hello San Antonio

San Antonio, Texas?

Can you be alittle more informative with the post?

I'm guessing you dont mean Texas, but you never know.

Re: Hello San Antonio

Yes, it is Texas. And for OT, It feels like it might be the right front but I'm not real sure if you remember the trouble we had on the last driveline vibration.

Yes. You had the second worst SVX driveshaft ever recorded.

Ever!

Undriveable!

Well you're in luck then!

I can help you out with all that stuff, the CV joint I can replace here at my garage. If its a bearing my friends shop will press out the old bearing and press in the new one for $30-$60. I just ordered some rear bearings if I had a front i'd give it to you.

Either way, we should meet up. Theres lots of SVXer's here that are always willing to help out!
