Does that sound decent? I'll most likely just do the front for now as I don't have that full amount yet....Is that ok, or do I really need to do it all in the one go?
This is pencilled in for Monday so if I don't get a reply no dramas, i'll probably just go ahead with the fronts :)

Cheers guys,
Russ

G/day Butters, good to see you mate....

As for your brakes?.... as long as you still have some pad left on the rears & your not planning to leave it to long your should be quite ok doing the fronts first & the rears shorty after.

Standard DBA's (not slotted or cross-drilled) ~$160ea. Slotted $190ea. I think the slotted & cross-drilled were $220. Could be cheaper, could be more pricey, just what I got quoted :)
How's your truck going mate?
