Any honda repair shop.. and there are alot of them around the NS, i see em all the time. I try to only go to a performance shop to get performance things done.. though, having a DSM, it's hard to find any shop to work on my car. :-/

good luck with it

NTB, go in the one at willowbrook and tell them you have a problem. if you haggle with them enough they will give you a good enough deal on it. i work at the one on westheimer.

I'll swap out the axle for you for a good price, e-mail me GuyStrtRcr18@hotmail.com, just buy a new axle for O'riellys, bastards have lifetime warrantys so if it ever fails you get a new one anyway.

I'll call 3-4 shops in the area, get quotes from them, average it out, and do it for 50% of whatever the average is, you supply parts.

take car connection up on his offer and watch him do it so you can learn. Car work is easy, you just need the confidence. Honestly, working on most things is just taking off bolts. I just changed my clutch with nothing more than a step by step printout from www.vfaq.com. If you learn to do stuff yourself, you will save A LOT of money.

yes sir, you just need to utilize your common sense. I changed my first CV joints w/o any knowledge of how to change it, but I still got it done. Common sense :thumb:
