I'm getting my brakes done tomorrow.
My neighbor is going to do them for me. I bought him a case of beer and gave him 20 bucks and I bought the pads and shoes. Did I get a good deal ?

1. I Would Say So
Don't forget to check the brake fluid level and pump up your brakes before you put the car in drive to make certain there's enough pressure built up to stop.

3. Brakes Are Easy To Do
It's just a dirty job.

4. Well I am a dumb ass on mechanical stuff.
A case of beer(Coor Lite 16.99) and 20 bucks to the guy is worth it to me.
