Default Any Good Brake Shops here!

are there any good brake shops around here that would do aftermarket installations? I'm in the process of upgrading the entire brake system on my truck and am looking for possible places to do it. Also does anybody know what the ballpark figure would be for installation?

any help and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys

-Kaleo

How mechanically inclined are you? If it's just swapping rotors and mounting hardware then it's pretty easy. If you going do the back from drum to disk it's harder but swapping the systems isn't that hard unless you gotta press out stuff then you going to need a machine shop.

I don't know if anyone other than speed shops would do such a thing cause it's a liabilty for them if something goes wrong.

Try calling around.

I'm not really mechanically inclined at all, only the real basic stuff I can do like install intake, light bulbs, grilles, tires, etc.. So far i've tried looking in the autoshopper and island previews for any shops that do brakes, but so far no luck. I've got a referral from Eurosport to go to Jun auto service so I'm checking on that.

I'm pretty sure some motorsport shops would do it, but I try to stay away from big named ones like Revolution because even though some of the sales people I have talked with are cool, their prices are just outrageous. Though the search continues

and yea, the instructions from SOS are a bit confusing to me, so i'm not even going to touch this swap with a 10' shhhhhhhhtick!
