    I was using the guy we had working with us when I was still in MTP. But he's left there and think he's at some stereo shop in West Ashley . Think it's custom car stereos

    For those of you curious. I noticed a knocking noise yesterday, found the drivers UCA was a bit loose, snugged it up.

    Today, driving back from Mt.P I hear a knocking noise. Get home, find that the sway bar end link wasn't tightened clearly because it came off from the spindle side and got wrapped up in between the outer tie rod and the axle. Now my axle is destroyed and everything is covered in grease.

    I'd be taking it back to who did the work and you want a factory CV not aftermarket they suck

    Among other things. I'm getting it towed tomorrow, going to get an estimate and the guy who did this better pay 100% of it.

    Side note, how are aftermarket axles quality wise?

    I'll be having it towed to either the dealer or Firestone where I know people, and the person who swapped the springs better foot the bill.
