People talk about doing brakes all the time... i just wonder if its really
that easy with basic hand tools and such. I have never gotten in there and
poked around with the brakes (or anything really except the basic engine
stuff) so is it really simple that someone like me (reasonably intelligent,
hey i have a couple degrees!) could do??
