(MY BICEPS...u muscle car freaks..lol)
so can we get an answer to the original question please... does anyone know what a standard front brake job should run - so i do not get ripped off any where, would appreciate if anyone has gotten this done to let me know what u paid.

You gonna tell him about that 150ftlb caliper bracket bolt before he gets in over his head?

I recently changed all pads and rotors which is no big deal but left rear rotor was stuck on and used a torch and puller to get it off, broke a chunk off of it doing it. You never know what you might run into.
