I am going to change the brakes (pads and shoes) for my first time. The front pads were done once before by a Goodyear dealer and they squeal so bad it drives me insane. I have 121k miles now. I want to use genuine Toyota pads and shoes this time. I don't think I need new rotors but should I have the rotors and drums turned anyway? The rotors are really shiny now (if that matters).
Can anyone offer me any suggestions, gotchas, etc., on doing this job for a newbie? I've got a Haynes manual that I will probably follow to the letter unless someone knows better.
Thanks Eric
