    i checked my local advances znd auto zones and and it seems either im missing something(entirely possible,lol) because these prices are rediculous compared to what rock auto quotes...even WITH shipping,lol,its still about half as much ! and what i really wanna do since my baby has almost 150k on her is just completely replace the drums and rotors,slap on some descent pads(not necessarily the cheapest but good for the money) and make the brakes like brand new again at least...lol...

    anyone know where i can get some drum/pad and rotor/pad kits ? and im not talking any serious offroad stuff...i spend 90% of my time on pavement and my kids are in there often so i just want proper stopping power i know i can rely on but im also on a budget ! lol

    thanky fellers !

    Sounds like you answered your own question.

    Powerstop brakes and rotors on Amazon, Rick auto are like 150-175. The rear shoes are resoanable. If the rear drums are reusable just have them resurfaced. You’ll be done for like $300 and some of your time.

    Do not touch your brakes until they need to be changed. Don’t borrow trouble.

    Rock Auto, like you said. If you have time for them to ship, you can do it for half the price of going to the auto parts store.
