About how much would a shop charge to install a pair of rear brake pads on a GSR?

 

Just DIY, it takes all of 5 mins per tire.

 

Thanks for answering my question

 

i got quoted 65 for install when i had the pads already for the REAR ONLY.

do it yourself.

i did! broke my caliper! but now i know all about the working of my break system

 

It'll be anywhere from $50-100.

As suggested, try to do it yourself. It requires basic hand tools. The only hard thing you might encounter is tight bolts. Some elbow grease or a breaker bar (or an impact gun) will help you here.

Remember, the rear brake piston must be turned back in, not just pushed back in.

Sounds about right.

 

Maybe like $30-$40 at like a meineke or something.
The turning in of the caliper will prolly give you the most trouble. Try it yourself honetsly it couldn't be easier. Id rather do that than a damn oil change

 

Is it necessary to bleed the brake fluid when you are just replacing the front pads?

 

u should be able to do this urself

nop!
unlless its time to flush the system, you dont have to....

 

You don't need to bleed them as long as you don't take the brake line off of the caliper, which you don't need to do when you are just changing the pads. Unless you already have a spongy feeling pedal, you won't need to bleed them.

 

Around $60

 

I paid $50.00 labor only. No rotor resurfacing. Just installation only. He quoted $65 but ask for discount. He did not bleed my brake at all.

 

**** i pay $25 and it cost me $70 to do the rotors

 

this is why people like you get flamed..... he may not have answered your question but he damn sure gave you the best estimate.... the 25-100 you would save by listening to him you could buy him a drink for the advice and get a class in sarcasim avoidence!!!!!!!!!!!!! *****
