Default Can someone suggest a North NJ shop that can change brakes on an Oldsmobile Bravada?

My lady friend needs to have the brakes on her Bravada changed and we are looking for a shop to take it to. Can anyone suggest an honest mechanic in Northern NJ who can change the brakes and maybe look at a couple of other issues it has.

Thanks

where in north jersey? i know a mieneke in upper saddle river on Route 17 northbound that did the brakes in my camaro. the owner is a first gen fbody owner and i'd certainly recommend them for anything but custom exhaust work.

She's in the Wayne, NJ area. I'm assuming you're guy is reasonable and trustworthy.

Also, does he usually get busy because we'd like to find a place that can do the work tomorrow.

TTP is actually local to me. But I'm pretty sure with all the performance work they do, they don't want/have the time to change brakes on a Bravada, LOL.

honestly i've only brought my car to him twice. once was my old isuzu to patch up a exhaust leak and another was my camaro of course getting brakes. he did do the work the same day for both cars and gave good prices and is clean. i can't say i know him well enough to recommend that much. wayne isn't very close to Upper Saddle Riverso if i were you, i'd take my chances elsewhere. just my opinion.

as far as brakes go... 6-pack of beer to an LS1tech member will probably cover the labor

I had some work done on my Caprice by Stage1 Automotive on RT23 North in Pequannock. They are reasonably priced.
