So I need new shocks in the rear and I am wondering how hard it is to replace those as I do not want to pay someone 200 bucks to do it.
Second, the shop has told me that me front brakes and rotors are bad and they have to replace them. What I am confused about is that they said they have to repack the front bearings to replace the brakes? Is this a reality? I mean i guess those could be bad?
I am just trying to save some money as the front brake job was quoted at 499. That seems really frickin high to me.
Last, if you guys could suggest the brand and model of rear shock to be putting in there that would be awesome.
Thanks again! |
