Story goes like this: I leave for vacation Saturday with xTerra. xTerra front pads worn almost to nothing; sensors have been squealing like pigs for a while. Front rotors not in best shape. No idea if rear drums/shoes are bad, as I haven’t pulled them to check.
I got new rotors and pads with the intent to do the fronts before we leave. Now I got called out of town on business and I won’t get back until late the night before we leave. So I’m out.
As such, I’m needing someone who can do a front rotor and pad swap (and check and possibly do rear drums with their own sourced parts) for me ASAP, but using my parts for the front (I’ve got new Powerslot rotors and Hawk pads). Any takers? Preferably in the south hills towards mon-valley.
This isn’t like a simple 2wd car rotor swap or I’d pull it off in the dark Friday night; the wheel bearings need pulled as part of the assembly and all the locking nuts have to be torqued and checked for preload adjustment to spec when reinstalled. I don’t want a “That’s good enough” re-do of my wheel bearings.
So, if you don’t have the tools to do it… no deal. But if you are a shop and/or have the tools to check bearing pre-load after rotor install, and do good work, using the rotors and pads I already have, please PM me ASAP! Or if you know of a shop who will do the labor at a decent price with my parts, let me know. Not looking for the dreaded $700 Nissan Dealer brake job (no shit, that’s what they’ve charged for 4 wheels). But nonetheless I am in a bind.
Thanks
