So if you haven't checked your flex disc recently, do it and replace it. Especially if your wife/girlfriend/mother/SO/child/whoever is driving the car. |
that's not a terribly awful price... pia job that i had an indy do... he had to pull off part of the exhaust system to do the front one.. and something with the drive shaft had to be done out of house....pressing on something.. I can't believe I can't remember... it seems the job cost 300 and i supplied both flex disks... the front was shot... but the back was ok
