R&R front disc pads, rear drum shoes. This was the first time the rear shoes required replace, the third set of front disc pads. As is customary rotors and drums were turned. Even though the Toyota manual stats the trans fluids and filtters are supposed to be lifetime, for our peace of mind we will be servicing the trans fluids and filters next month.
