Bad and EXPENSIVE news about my squeaking and shaking issue.
So today when I was finally getting my oil changed, I asked them to check out my rotors and my front suspension and they said all 4 rotors need to be replaced and I asked him about d/s rotors (I post a thread under brakes about what he said about them) and this is what he found that is causing EMBARRASSING SQUEAKING:
Replace Inner and Outer Tie Rods L&R $425.17
Remove and Replace Pitman Arm $142.35
Front End Alignment $79.95
Including the labor and parts but without tax is $647.47
i want to get this done soon. can i post a charity thread? lol. jk. but donations are very well appreciated!

im sure we can negotiate a fair price (email me). Also you can get the parts cheaper from a parts store for non ford stuff, or order online for ford stuff, and you will come out ahead on costs.
Im hoping to make it to galveston, but no promises since my truck is wrecked now and im not sure what vehicle i will have access to.

Tie rods are very very easy. As you take them out (they unscrew) count how many full revolations you make, when you put the new one on put each side on exactly how many you took it off. You can use a measuring tape to check the tread of the tire in the same spot on both front and rear. (so you measure one part of the tread on one tire to the same part on the other opposite tire) the truck should be toed in about 1/8" of an inch or so.

pshhh whatever. i have no money. im freaking broke! and my parents dont pay for stuff like this. this is what they expect me to pay to really find out the cost of owning a car to make me more mature. business is slow, everyone has no money. why did you have to ruin a perfect conversation on asking if this is too high of a price just to get some squeaking fixed. come on be chill in here
