Title: Brake job
Post by: john brunson on October 29, 2017, 12:08:54 AM

Guys,

The brake job is complete- new calipers, pads, rotors, seals, bearings, all hoses, and a fresh brake light switch.   Total shop bill ncluding parts was just over $2000.

Thanks for all the help running down parts... it took several weeks, but the bus stops awesome.

John

Is that cost for brakes on all axles?  Are these "Air brakes" or hydraulic?
Do you have Disc brakes on all axles (or Drum on rear)?

I just had my front brakes replaced on our 01 Contessa.

Rotors, pads, calipers, wheel hubs, brake fluid flush and replacement of fluid. Two new front tires also put on.

Brake lines were good. We haven't picked it up from the shop yet though.

Total bill was $2063. I bought the calipers, and pads myself.
