That is a pretty good chunk of change, but the dedictible for having a wreck would be more - AND you would be out of a truck!

Glad you got it fixed!

Yeah it is, unfortunately everything is when you don't have your own shop and time. Nothing I can do about it really, I need the vehicle.

2.5 hours labor? Wow.... aren't they generous. It probably took them all of about 30 minutes to do the job.....

2.5 hours sounds labor sounds legit

Basically if the shackle is rusted the bolts aren't coming off easy pretty simple. Luckily we don't have the pop riveted ford ones that punch through the bed
