^ front break pads for your car are about 20 bucks. I'll add a 30 dollar labor fee if all you need is the pads replaced. If this interests you, send me a pm and we will discuss it further.

3/25/2008 8:41:16 PM

^what, do you charge more to change the rotor as well?

In most cases you will want to change the pads and rotors unless you get the rotors turned on a brake lathe.

BTW, I have been changing brakes on here for about 3 years, at about $25 for the front and $25 for the rear. Person pays exact cost for parts. I'm also have ASE certifications, and worked as a mechanic for 3 years.

^ holy crap thats cheap.

^what i was thinking

3/25/2008 10:01:23 PM

^
In most cases, the rotor comes off easily after removing the caliper, so...if the customer wants me to change the rotors as well, they would have to pay the cost of the rotor only.

Normally, having them turned can be just as expensive as buying new ones. So it would be my recommendation to purchase new ones if needed, and at no additional labor cost, it is a good deal.

If i feel that the job is too much for me to handle, then I would gladly recommend them to you MaximaDrvr. Thanks for your concerns.

^^^ why do you change the rotors in most cases? I've seen cars go through 2 and 3 sets of brake pads before they even had to run their rotors on a lathe.

3/25/2008 10:04:08 PM

+1 for maximadrvr

3/25/2008 10:04:12 PM

I usually don't change them untill the 2nd set of brakes are put on unless there is noticable scoring to the rotor.

and by the way...I charge $30 for the changing of the brakes and rotors plus the cost of parts. I come to you. Good day, that is all.

3/25/2008 10:13:27 PM

lawl. i run my rotors until it feels like i'm running on a washboard when i put on brakes.

3/25/2008 10:45:41 PM

hold on, getting rotors turned cost as much as new ones? last time i check it was 30 bucks to have them turned (the pair) as apposed to 70 a piece for new ones. just throwin that one in there.

3/26/2008 10:36:37 AM

how much for a 99' Lexus ES 300? front and rear?

3/26/2008 10:38:37 AM

certification?
credibility?
past customer reviews?


fucking up someone's brakes is the last thing someone would want to do.

^^^ depends on the car

totally depends on the car.

once a rotor warps, it's just going to do it again. turning them is just a useless bandaid.

I suggest changing the rotors if you can afford it, and especially if they are scored in any way.

'96 Chevy Beretta -

I have all the parts.

It needs the front pads and rear shoes replaced. It also needs a leaky rear brake cylinder replaced.

How is your availability next weekend (or the weekend after)?

4/13/2008 9:09:34 PM

my internet has been screwy the last few days so sorry for the delayed responses. I am available this weekend and next. Doesn't seem like that bad of a job considering you have all the parts. I'll keep you posted and we can make arrangements by friday.

4/16/2008 2:25:44 PM

talk to MaximaDrvr - he did mine about 10 months ago roughly - been doing great, no problems what so ever. He has all the equipment and can do it after work hours. Would recommend him to anyone.

Noone wants you working on their brakes dude! Honestly, unless you are a business operating with an insurance policy you are setting yourself up to lose everything you have.
