Reviews:

I was passing through Alamosa on a road trip when I developed rear brake problems due to a leaking oil seal. I stopped at Johnnie`s Auto Repair and asked to have the axle seal replaced. In the process of removing the axle, a retaining pin broke. The mechanic first advised me to buy a new differential carrier costing several hundred dollars and requiring several days for delivery. When I objected to this, he then sugg... view moreested that I pay somewhat less for a used differential from salvage. I examined my vehicle and I could see no reason to replace anything other than the retaining pin and seals, so I insisted that the axle be reassembled with only those new parts, and a tack weld to ensure that the new pin would not work loose. Well, this guy performed an overly massive, bulbous weld, which caused interference inside the case so that the differential could not rotate. In order to rectify this, the weld had to be ground down, and this ham-fisted mechanic did not even shield the open differential from the grinder, which resulted in it being filled with metal filings before he closed and filled it with oil. At this point I was so appalled and disgusted that I quietly paid the outrageous $308 bill just to get out of there.
