This has  obviously been discussed on here before but I cant run it down.  i WAS going to replace the brakes on my 180 myself until  Santa dropped my lump of  coal from the sleigh and hit my head and put me out of commission.  I know the job comes with uncertainties , but  can somebody give me an idea OF the range of labor costs involved that i might expect

Need some serious block cribbing, remove the rear wheel assemblies, remove the axle tubes and then can start the Brake Job.

When I was much younger, I would flat rate both sides at 8 hrs.  Torch work was extra as was a cab or roll bar.

Changing the brakes can be done pretty quick.  All the time comes from removing and reinstalling the axle and wheel.  I have done several in recent years, so I am getting better at it.
