Unhappy

Dealer wont touch it I'm sure. I pretty much voided warranty when I cut the carrier bearing bracket out and had other ones welded back on it.
It sucks because I may lose out on a lot of money trying to get rid of it.
Trade in value on it is only $18,450 in excelent condition. I owe $17000.
I hope they think it is more less the tires and not mechanical issues.

I know there's someone around here that works at a dealer. They should be able to find out if you've be black listed on the warranty. If you're not go to a different dealer.

Well, I'm just going to have to curl up into a ball and just take what I can get for the truck.
I don't even want it anymore.

Man, that sucks big time I guess you were never able to get the driveshaft that you were looking for...seems like you had it narrowed down to that area.

Yeah, it has something to do with the driveshaft. I just cant stand the truck anymore. I don't know what else to do to fix the issue. Nobody seems to know a driveline specific shop here in Houston. I would have it fixed, but can't find anyone to fix it. Its been a huge dissapointment and headache I wish on no one.
Wish things got better, but my entire project failed before it started.

I have heard there is a good driveline shop in Pasadena. I was recommended to them by Pyle Bros in Baytown who set up my rearend, they said they send all the racecar guys down there and have had great luck w/ them. I will do some research and let you know there info if your interested.
