That wasn't the point. $130 is still more than $0, plus labor if you cannot do it yourself.
Maybe if the vehicle dynamics of front wheel drive were better, the tires would stick a lot harder and get the same weight transfer as a rearwheel drive car, but that simply isn't the case.
A 300hp Fwd car and a 300hp Rwd car are going to put far different loads on the axles. The Rwd drive car will have much better weight transfer and therefore a higher amount of stress on the axles!
Engineering is great!
