You could check your local Schuk's or equivalent autoparts store next time your out but remember the workshop will mark them up. As it's a Ford Dealer they will have published times for all jobs so ask what the Ford approved time is for the work. Ask what their labour rates are and ...... Shop charge not sure, could be for all the misc. pins, washers etc the used when they replaced the pads or grease for the parking brake. Whatever. 12.35/4 is only $3 a wheel!
Overaul I thinks it's par for the course.

Thanks, but this was the local gas station and not the dealer. That's why I thought the parts were high.
