Shoulda brought the service manager and his guys an ice chest of beer, alot cheaper than an axle and labor.

when are they going to tell you after they install the parts? F*** that I'd tell them to stick it up their ass if they charge you and tow it to a 4wd shop and get alloy usa's put in

just a quick update the dealer said that they are not covering it because the skid plates had dents and I had a broken tail light they said it was abused this is complete crap any suggestion on fighting it or just go alloy axel shafts and forget it that's my option right now......
