Angry Shotty Workmanship

seriously what is wrong with some people!!

so my truck has had a serious vibration while braking and the previous owner told me that he had the driverside ball joints replaced and had a pad slap done while they had them apart. ok so i figure he should of at least had the rotors cut and thats usually been the source of such vibrations in the past.

what he didn't tell me was that at one point he had the inner tie rods done but not the outers. so i get under there and not only can i move the outers back and forth quite easily but ALL of the cotter pins are gone. What the ?

why wouldn't you replace the cotter pins they are at most 50c a pin. so on these bumpy roads i could of had my steering come completely apart. because some lazy *** piece of crap couldn't be bothered to replace a pin.

so now i got to replace the outers, hopefully this will eat away most of the vibration. i would hate to waste pads that are as thick as mine.

DO IT RIGHT OR DO IT TWICE
