Got myself scheduled for the famous rod bearing job @ RRT in Virginia. Looking forward to taking care of that and a couple other things.

How much is it setting you back? And what bearings/bolts are you going with?

RRT did my corner balance and track alignment

RRT quoted me $2850 for BE bearings, ARP hardware, and new motor mounts installed. They are a bit on the expensive side but they do great work.

Yeah they are not the cheapest by any means but I trust their shop. I think I am going to tackle the bearings as a DIY this winter

Doing BE and ARP. No big plans now but am open to something as the car ages and do not want to have to do it again when/if I do. They will include motor mounts and the price point is at 3k but that's because I have some maintenance items bundled into the ask.

Dealings so far are great. To the point and answering all the questions I am looking for!
