Unhappy Brake Question

Hello All,

I have a question not knowing if this is the correct site to ask. Could you please guide me to the proper site if necessary.

The wife's 98 Contour front brake pads are into the rotar. Any info to do a front pad & rotar replacement? Not sure of the difficulty involved and if it would warrant taking it into the shop instead.

Thanks for any input.

Should be simple. If you are unsure spend $10-20 and get a Hanes manual for the car. It will give you step by step instructions and pictures. If you decide that is to much for what you want to attempt, then you will still have the Hanes manual for research and a guide for the car.

Couleeman,

Appreciated the manual suggestion. Found it at the library and looks like what I needed to get me motivated. Thank you much.
