I felt scrubbing under my brake pedal for the last several days and finally took it to a supershop in Atlanta. They showed me where the calipers on the right were sticking and how the rotors had been worn down below spec. I have 85,000 on this 99 TJ and I think this is the first brake job. Anyway, they showed me the drums in the back and I saw where there was a leaking wheel cylinder. They told me I should definitely replace in pairs so, they told me I needed 2 new calipers,2 new rotors,(the new pads would be included), also 2 new wheel cylinders. They bleed and fill the brake fluid,and clean and adjust. I had already told them to replace the serpentine belt so it's all brought up to a total of $782.96 It went like this 59.00 for belt 70.00 to install
1 pair calipers 177.00 labor;$126.00 1 pair rotors 165.00 1pair real wheel cyl. 95.00 labor; 90.00env'nt/shop mat'ls 47.00 brings the sub total to 829.00 not including tax.
I did need this stuff but I'm wondering if the price is about right. ...and I know I could've done a lot of this myself.
thanks, elflan
