if your rear drums are still in spec, make ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN that you have them surfaced! I bought my car in July from someone who obviously did SEVERAL "slap jobs" on the brakes, slapping new pads on and both my drums AND rotors have a lip! It can get VERY expensive if you have to pay a shop to do the job for you (I was quoted $550! confused.gif )

Needless to say I told them hell no, and I'm saving up to buy the parts & do the job myself.
