I advise you to take it to a mechanic that you trust or a mechanic in your
town that has a good reputation. Allow him to do the work and make the
choice on a proper replacement. Don't try to do the work yourself. The job
will be much easier for a mechanic since they can place the vehicle on a
lift--that's a lot easier than crawling under your car and trying to do
the work.
