Question about pads and rotors on ebay
Reposting as people probably thought this was an add based on original
subject line: Does anybody have any recommendations or comments to make rotor/pad deals on ebay? They have some great deals on pads and rotors for my 96 C4 - approx $200 +/-. for a set of all four. (erotorshop, etop line, US Rotors, others). Here's a sample url: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tego ry=33564 I went back to the mechanic that gave me a high estimate for replacing the set and he agreed that I could supply the parts and he would charge me $250 for labor. A little high but much more reasonable than his $800 price for parts. He also suggested I get the caliper kits in case the seals need replacing. But I don't find those on ebay and that would be another $120 at Ecklers. Is that reasonable? |

Do you know anything about rotors and pads deals on ebay? Nobody's
responding to this question. I'm wondering if that is a 'taboo' thing to do - ie. go to ebay to buy Corvette parts? I plan on being there when they replace the rotors and pads so I'll see if I learn more about how this happened. The car is in the northeast and we've had a couple hard winters and I do drive it during the winter as long as there is no snow on the street as the car has virtually no traction. I'm surprised it doesn't fly off the track sometimes<g>. To top it off, we've done some home remodelling and the car hasn't been garaged for a while so I guess the tires could have been sitting in snow a while without me realizing it. |
