man that sucks, at least you have some muscle in your corner just be sure to include legal fees in the amount you're requesting since they are refusing to work with you to solve the issue.

Well the driver got busted for lying to the ins. company. So there a heaping load of crap flying now. The cops are involved now to..... For what, I have no clue.

The rims I have are know longer around. Have not found them so there going to have to replace them all.

The truck is running dog legged down the road. Thats why the are looking at housing replacement.
Dealer went with new axle housing $2100. $800. for all bearing, seals, gear oil, and $1200 labor.

$3000 for rims and tires, alignment
$200 for buffing

total $7300.00

I dont think the truck need a housing. Maybe bearing, seals, gear oil,

But you never know.

If your truck is dog tracking you have a tweaked frame.

not always
an axle locating issue ( slipping block, bent mount and on and on can also create the issue
but any good shop has the proper dimensions to check various points on the frame to see whats up

No but I have seen truck tweak a frame just plowing snow so it does not take a lot of force to do it.
