I thought it would take not even 45 minutes. it may not but most shops will still bill you the full hour. Also pads are an easy job but rotors could be seized on or have other issues. A 2 hour brake job on all 4 wheels is actually pretty fast IMO. --- It's what's best for business. <cite>EvalAngell posted [p:907043956] in $340 to re...

NathanX95 08/17/18 10:45:52 AM #6:	What a fucking rip off. I did it myself last a few weeks ago. Two rotors and brake pads both costed me $60. Took me about three hours to change, but it was well worth it. <cite>NathanX95 posted [p:907043992] in $340 to re... [t:76911205]...</cite> <quote>What a fucking rip off.
