    Gear head question.

    In your opinion, how long should it take a "professional" shop to do the fallowing.

    1.Drain break fluid
    2.Replace breaklines(swap out kit)
    3.Replace 4 rotors and pads.
    4.Pack berrings and new seal.

    I say if I had the tools and the room, I could do it in a 2 hours.

    What'da you think?

    That's the whole thing, I'm bringing it in to a new shop(reconmended by a boardmember).

    I don't want to get ripped off. I'm supplying them with all the parts(even break fluid) and I don't want them to charge me 6 hours in labor when it takes 2-3 hours to do(at $70 a hour it can get pricey).

    Just want my guns loaded when I bring it in, letting them know I know the process and how long it should take.
