Help Yasir replace the rear axle and return to work
Yasir drives for a living in Sukkur, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 10 weeks.

I make my living with my taxi. 10 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $250 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $175
• Labor charges: $15
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
• Towing and inspection: $30
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

- Great help in a difficult time
I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

Rooting for you, Yasir. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family, Yasir. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Wishing you the best, Yasir. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Calamba so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
keep going, Yasir. Hope the shop reopens soon. Put this on a community board in Katowice this morning. All the best.
Hope things get better soon, Yasir. Your post was clear and honest.
