Despite what they tell you, this car is one of the easiest brake jobs ever.

Do not expect rotors to last too long with the stock pads. A simple thickness measurement tells you whether they need replacing.
agreed!!!! i've never changed brake pads before and i did it on my SRT/8. there is a great HOW TO on this forum. you could get four pads for under $200. when it's time to change my rotors i'm going to use one of our supporting vendors.

here's a great link for you:
