Brake Pads

[Bartcephus]

Washed the ATV and noticed I'd bent a shock absorber. Then noticed I needed new brake pads and a new CVJ boot. Went to the dealer and holy batman, I got sticker shock. Three sets of brake pads, one shock absorber and one boot kit, $250.00. The brake pads were $40.00 per set! What the h_ _ _? I can get full size ones for my truck all the way around for $50.00 and they want $40 bucks per set? The shock was a real killer too! Almost $90.00 and I had to pay shipping for it too. That just ain't right. Glad I didn't pay for labor as my bill would have doubled... or did I pay for labor and not get the benefit of it. Sorry folks... had to rant here. Just got to putting it all on the 4x4 last night and had to pay another $40.00 for a strut spring compressor.

Regards,
Bart
