Damn... My the front brakes on my 96 Sport V-8 lasted over 60,000
miles.....
but then again, a lot of those were highway miles... and it also depends
on the driver...
Later,
Tom "Slick"

40,000? You did good. Some rotors and pads go before 12,000. If they do
go before 12K warranty will usually cover but after that you're on your own.
Then we head to better parts like Powerslot rotors and Raybestos
semi-metallic pads.

Haven't posted to the list lately but thought you all should be aware I had
to do front brakes on my '98 CC Dak this morning. Heard 'em making strange
noises although looking through the slots in the wheels at the outside of
the
discs, they looked fine. The wear was on the inside. Got to the rivets on
the left inside face of the disc. Had to replace the disc. This at 47,000
miles. Were I any of you, I would start looking REALLY close at about
40,000. Rear drum shoes are about 40% gone at this point. Just an FYI for
all of you out there.
