This might be the stupidest thing ever but(overhaul kits)

No!
Remember you get what you pay for.
OEM parts are made to certain specifications. What you're looking at is not, It's built to look like OEM parts.

 

$3.5k for labor is the first red flag to me and then Alibaba parts at that price is another one. It's kinda like using single ply toilet paper at the water park while you're still wet. Sure, it may work temporarily, but it's not something that's going to last with your derriere untouched.

 

Sounds like a good idea. I always try to cheap out on repairs for trucks I take across the country.

 

Next post from the OP,

Help! One of the parts failed on my $600 rebuild kit and I have a big hole in my engine block. They won't return any calls either!

 

I dunno how much faith I'd have in anything from a website that sounds like a streetside vendor in Agrabah.

 

Things I trust more then that rebuild kit,

 

That sounds like Backyard Billy Jo pricing. I'm all for shadetree work, that's how my vehicles get fixed, but that price seems way too low for an actual shop to do it.

 

not sure what the small town has to do with the pricing, but the pavement isn’t invented that would hold the tracks I would make getting away from that shop. My brother has a S60, just had it inframed about a month ago, $26,000. But, I think that truck will run for another 960,000 miles now. 600 dollar kit be lucky to see the end of the drive
