Anyone in the central Virginia area and can replace my shock/strut assembly (http://www.partstrain.com/ShopbyDepartment/Shock_Absorber_and_Strut_Assembly) and wheel bearing hub assembly? The shock/strut liquid is leaking and the wheel bearing hub makes a weird noise and the technician showed me by lifting it up in the shop and comparing to the passenger side.

I need this done for the front driver side and would like to see what others have paid for these two things to be done, what I should expect to pay, and if anyone knows a good place to go that I can trust and won't charge me an arm and a leg.

Yeah, ummm if its a Tacoma I assume its 2wd.. Cause the 4wd's have CV Trans axles which are lubricated internally. And if the bearing is bad on one of those, it may just be cause to replace the whole CV axle. ($120 from Toyota for reman'd)
