Brake pads for 1997 Patriot 33'

[Lloyd Hall]

Where can you buy the Disk pads for a 1997 Beaver Patriot, and have them installed?

[JimDyer]

Any good truck repair shop should be able to do that for you.

Thanks for the information Jim.

No problem, Lloyd. On my first MVI they found one of the cans was broken, leaving me with 3 wheel braking.........took 4 days to find and bring in the replacement, but the pads were stocked locally in a town of 10,000 people.

Just had the front and rears done on our 1997Patriot. Got the pads, had the front rotors turned and replaced the rear rotors. All parts came from a local parts store that sells to truckers.

Richard, Can I get a general idea about what it would cost to purchase the pads and have them installed. I just want to be in the ball park. (as they say)

Thanks,

The pads run between $120 to $140 per wheel plus about an hour labor per wheel. Add if the rotors need to be turned which we were able to do to the fronts and the rears had to be replaced which entailed pulling the hubs and renewing the wheel seals.The brake rotors bolt onto the hubs.

 Counting the pads for four wheels at about $500, two turned and two new rotors and new wheels seals at about $600 and the labor we inched past $1700 with tax but included resealing the slide two way hydraulic cylinder.
