No it wasn't that they wanted to overcharge me it was just that he was letting me know his cost of welding supplies. I am ok with getting new disks as the running around etc etc would come to the same thing as a $99 disk. I just got the second just in case and extra studs as well.
I missed your new bearings and races, I will have to do it when I change the pads I guess I am hoping to get a more seasoned aka older P mechanic to help me out.
Not sure what the maintenance time is for bearings on an IRS rear end in miles. Let me know what you think.
