footman:
OK so I know this is my bad but due to time issues I had to take the jeep to Karns Auto to have my two steel breaklines (the ones that run across the axle) replaced.  They just called and said the total was........................wait.....................are you sitting down.........................$239.79.   Oh my gosh, had I known that I would have tried to make some time.  Well you learn as you go.  I'm going to see if they will work w me on the price.

Axle:
Yup, that sounds about right...  FOR THEM!!! 

footman:
Ok so they dropped it a little but not after the dude behind the counter got all heated up at me. It will make for a good campfire story. Oh I can't wait till Mohawk

kirksjeep:
I am guessing their labor rate is $100/hr which seems to be the going rate for the area.  The parts are only a few dollars, even with all new fittings I wouldn't expect the parts to be more then $20. 

Jess keeps telling me I should open a shop when I get out of the Navy, with prices like that it might be a good idea.

Seabee_BUC:
I heard that place was awful. I would never take anything to get worked on there....He's just there to take advantage of the Sailors...
