    Default resurfacing a flywheel

    I need to resurface my flywheel...

    The problem is I need quality work on a budget. Most of the time those two don't go together but in some rare occasions they do...

    That said, NAPA quoted me $50 but I'm hoping for 30ish or even cheaper since every little bit helps in this economy. I'm hoping some of you guys can post up any places that will resurface my flywheel for cheaper. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    They say you get what you pay for and I guess you're right. It's just a couple of years ago, resurfacing a flywheel wouldnt take more than 20, nowadays it seems to be 40-50 average.

    I might call clutch man tomorrow and see what's up.

    I ended up going to Specialty Clutch Services near downtown off of Murphy St.

    Extremely nice people!! I walked in and they knew immediately it was a Toyota flywheel. Took less than 10 minutes and can't complain at $20 A++
