When I had the brakes done on my first bus, a 4905, it was $11k to go through the brakes. Maybe all the advice about "you get what you pay for" that folks tried to give him is making a little more sense now... but I doubt it. I defended him until I took a step back and saw he was throwing gasoline on the fire every time he could reach the gas can.

I don't miss the drama I'll tell you that much.

Apparently the drums were misdirected on shipping and so they waited an extra day or two for the shipper to find them. the drums were virtually new.
After the install there was a 50 mile test drive, ChooChoo blessed the motor as worth putting on the Jakes.
All is weller in Georgia/Chatanooga... ;D
