Rear brakes?
Anyone had their entire rear brakes replaced on 90-95 four runner? The drum and all. If so how much did the shop charge? I got brand new rear brakes on both sides, and new axle bearings pressed on boths sides for $800. I havent actually paid yet because I think this is way overpriced. This is a regular shop not a dealer ship. Does this sound about right? Or should I have reason to bitch?

Did you not ask . How much is this gonna cost???
Before you had the work done. I know that the rear wheel bearings are expensive not to mention the labor.
If you are talking parts and labor . i can see where it could be that much .
Where all the e-brake parts replaced as well.
For whatever reason you could not do this job yourself.

My personal opinion is,the price might be "tad" high,but that depends on how many knuckles the mechanic shaved doing the labor.
I had my rear brakes replaced and new bearings done for $450.00 here in Lancaster,Pa at C&D racing. No problems since (1 year ago).

i find it hard to believe the drums had to be burned off maybe you meant heated.
If they were burned off it would have trashed all the brake parts.
I have never in about 30 years had a drum I could not remove . I have spent all my life in the salt belt.

Heated of...even then,that's a big maybe. Their hasn't been a drum I couldn't pry off (if not,backing the brake adjuster off) in many years.
This is a first,that I've heard of someone burning drums off.
