New pads or entire calipers?
I was replacing my wheel bearings today and noticed that the break pads were completly shot. The rotors seem fine, not scored. I am wondering if I should just replace the pads or the entire calipers.
I dont know how to tell if the calipers need replaced or if it is just pads? I can get the rebuilt calipers and pad assembly from car quest for 50 a piece, and I can get 4 pads from 4wd hardware for $15??? So it would save me some money. I have never done strictly the pads before, what is involved in this install, I have done the calipers so that is no problem.
Let me know
