Need some help in Phoenix

Right on I appreciate you. I'm going to see what @Maxx recommends this evening and go from there. My main priority right now has to be making it to see my kids tomorrow morning through Thursday so trying to juggle all my commitments around that and then see what Maxx's schedule is if he's willing and able to do the work for me.

I'll check them out for sure. I appreciate the heads up.

Y'all are awesome ... thanks for everything.

 

Not sure what they quoted you but usually the best option for new parts if going to be ordering online from Camelback Toyota and picking them up once the order is filled. You can’t walk-in and get the online price so you’ll have to order it and wait for the fulfillment email. Maybe call ahead to the normal parts department and confirm it’s in stock and see how expensive it if through retail parts. Usually the price difference is worth the wait if you have the time. They usually fulfill my online orders within a day or 2 if the part is in stock.

The spindle is pretty bent so no point in driving all the way here and pulling it apart until you have a new part.

 

Dang, good heads up! That's a good $130 cheaper than Avondale.

 

Roger that

 

FWIW Earnhardt out in Mesa will match their online prices for walk-ins, and they're usually able to get me relatively close to Camelback's pricing (sometimes better, but usually ~5% worse). Been using them a lot lately after years of making the trek over to Camelback to save a few bucks.

 

I’ll keep that in mind for people on the east side. Camelback happens to be the closet dealer to me otherwise I’d go somewhere else.

 

I can second this for the same reasoning. I do go to Big Two still when I need quick little stuff though, oil filters, misc hardware or parts, etc. Its just so close..

 

That was a good heads up. I just called Earnhardt and they knocked it down to $369 for me. The guy sounded well aware of Camelback's pricing -- said they can't touch it because Camelback is basically doing employee pricing for the general public.

 

I went ahead and went the Camelback route... I really appreciate it though.

 

No problem! New part is definitely the way to go if you can swing it. Hope you guys get it worked out.

 

y0 Liquid I'm based in Goodyear. I don't have spare parts but I can help with swapping something out after the normal work day if you can get replacements. Seems like these guys got you covered though.

 

I appreciate you! I made it from Goodyear to Mesa yesterday. With my sons now at an Airbnb over here and Maxx is going to to help with the install after I drop my boys back with their mom.

The support y'all have shown has been amazing (on this thread and via PM). Can't thank y'all enough.

 

Damn that must of been on slow drive! Glad you made it safely and you're gettin taken care of.

 

I figure you can’t go wrong with Root Beer

 

Straight, virgin, forged steel for @LiquidArrogance

 

oh sweet goodness! You get it all fixed up?

 

I'll be holding @Maxx 's beer at approximately 5:15 this evening

 

Awesome! Glad he is able to get you out of a massive bill at the repair shop. Great guys we have around here in AZ
