It's for my Mom's 94 Grand Marquis. She wants to go to the dealer where they'll charge her an arm and a leg. Any help is appreciated. 95 Mystique LS V6 ATX "Your on a need to know basis and you don't need to know" THE ROCK

I can't really see to many professional shops screwing up a brake job so you should be safe with wherever you go. Chad ----------------- http://www.1dzine.com jetski@mindless.com 98.5 SVT ?

They may charge extra for semi-metallic but they're much better. You definitely don't want crappy brakes on larger cars. -Lance 92 SHO, 224k, cams, etc, 11.6" brakes, lots of suspension work 00 Contour SVT, 18k, stock
