Agreed. I had the bearing go out on my 115. did some research on how to do it, priced the parts, and assuming I could get the tools I was looking at waiting a week for the parts, and then having to do the repair, which seems to be a royal bit
I went to the wrecking yard and bought a "control arm" and swapped it out.
but I'm a broke 20 something. If I had the option I think I would have spent the $300 to not have to do it myself. swapping the arm was a bear. $300 is a deal.
