The FNG
NOT a Powerstroke!
I'm finally getting geared up to get my front brakes done. The front end almost bounces off the ground when I go to slow down! My brakes were done at les Schwab about 45k ago (front and back). Fronts had new calipers, hardware, pads, wheel bearing packed, etc. rears had new pads, adjustment, hardware, turned drums, etc. since then, my rear drums fell apart (about 20 pieces) and they've had to rebuild them at least twice, the fronts have had rotors replaced and turned twice. I think I learned my lesson about going to les Schwab.
So I've compared prices to do the brakes around my area and it turns out to be $375-575 depending on the condition of the rotors. If I can do it myself, I priced parts out to $185 plus shipping ($215 total). Kind of hard to argue with.
So far, I've got new heavy duty rotors (raybestos 6084) and severe duty pads (Wagner sx450), and a disc brake hardware kit. I've read that I need a spindle nut socket (please help which one) and a new inner seal (not sure what the seal is for, so help again please). I also plan on re-packing my wheel bearings while I'm in there.
So with all that said, what else should I consider, buy, or do? Thanks for help!
