They told me it would cost $16,000 to get Buster the Bus back in shape. As a 60-year-old woman tackling this project, I knew there had to be a better way. Today, I’m talking about the steering coupler. The shop estimate? $900. My actual cost? Less than $50. I’m not a professional mechanic, and I’m not here to show you a step-by-step tutorial. I’m here to show you that with a little research and some grit, you don't have to be at the mercy of a shop's massive markup. I’m doing the "impossible" repairs for a fraction of the price, and I'm taking you along for the ride as I save over $12,000 on this build. If I can do this, you can too. In this video: The breakdown of the $16,000 "reputable" shop estimate. How I found a steering coupler for under $50. Why I’m choosing to do the work myself on Buster the Bus. #BusLife #WomenWhoBuild #BusterTheBus #BudgetBuild #Skoolie #MoneySavingTips #DIYOrDie
