said that my truck needed repairs and it did not

On Tuesday, May 24, I drove into Idaho Falls, Idaho, I am just getting back to work from a total knee replacement. When I parked in the lot a guy came over to my truck and said that the front end was making a loud awful noise. Since I am alone and need my truck, I called the Big O Tires on 3193 E.17th street, Ammon Idaho. They were the only ones that could get me in right away. The mechanic came in and told me that I needed to replace my front drive shafts at $117.00 each. He did this, and then the front desk guy came over and told me that I also needed, $70.00 pitman arm, $103.00 idler arm, $$120.00, inner tie rods, $120.00outter tie rods and $355.00 labor. I was shocked by the estimate and decided to get another opinion. I went to Bybee's Alignment and Brakes on 251 A street, Idaho Falls for a estimate and guess what??? All the stuff BIG O said that I needed was not required!!! They found a little play in the wheels but not much to warrent any work!!! Boy, I am still fuming over this... Did the sales man think he could just pull one over on me?? In these hard times, how could someone do this?
