Does the steering wheel shake or is can you feel it in the seat... Seat = rear brakes.

Will the Auto parts store make good on their product?
def the front cause if I brake in a turn, the steering wheel whats to turn in even more and gets unstable, not a nice feeling

I will have to see what they want to do. about the rotors

I wonder if they bothered to seat them once everything was installed.

3. thanks for the sound advise everyone :-)
1. Brake Lathe at a Brake Shop (dobbs, midas...)
2. Depends on the type of bolt holding the Calipers on. I haven't taken mine off yet, but my old Chevy Blazer needed a Alan wrench bit, for a 3/8 drive ratchet. I think my '98 Dodge Ram was just a regualr bolt.
