The standard 'generic' procedures are depicted in these step-by-step instructions: Front Disc Pads: http://www.msnusers.com/Sorensonbrian/diyfrontbrakes.msnw http://www.msnusers.com/Sorensonbrian/frontbrakepads2002.msnw Rear Brake Shoes: http://www.msnusers.com/Sorensonbrian/rearbrakedrums.msnw Note the lists of equipment needed (Apart from the obvious, the rest suggested have no relevance if MIRA is to do it!). Times for the swaps, from start to finish: 1 - 2 h for the rear and 1 h for the front, may be doubled if this is the first time. Easy. -- Lin Chung [Replace "the Water Margin" with "ntlworld" for e-mail].
