So I dropped the truck off at the service shop to have the front brakes done because they had a coupon for $99. I though that would only be about $20 more than if I did it myself so why not. Well then the extra fees popped in there. There was going to be a $60 charge because they needed to repack the bearing. long story short for what they were gonna charge me I could buy everything new and still be cheaper. I changed the rotors last time I did the brakes so I am sure they can be turned. Anyone know off a shop in the Yorba Linda area that will do this? The shop I dropped my truck off at only does that if they are doing your brakes. Any help is much appreciated.

AIR, Napa and O'Reiley do it for like $10/rotor. Or at least they used to.

I use Pepboys cuz they're close by. It's like $10-14ea but they leave them really nice. Some places leave them way to coarse and it eats up your pads for the first couple miles.

Not the one on Azusa I hope. Might as well drive 2 lights up and go to Ed's. Pep boys can suck a dick. I fucking hate that place, i've dealt with more educated 6th graders.
