    Woah wtf is that caliper price. A caliper cost 180 at minimum. Most car calipers are 120$ - 240$ Labor is like 70$ just for 1 side. FIRST OF ALL YOU GOT RIPPED OFF BADD ITS LIKE 6 SCREWS AND A BREAKER BAR AND A HANGAR WITH A YOUTUBE VIDEO ALL YOU NEED IS A Jack 20 for a bottle jack And Jack stand 25$ Breaker bar 25-20$ The caliper 180 Tool set socket sizes 125 pieces/different sizes for 80$ or if you go to harbor freight get a chrome set for cheaper like 50$ for 120 different sizes box.

    Your time. A YouTube video guide on same year and model of car/ generation of model that’s the same. And a caliper OEM push in tool A set of pliers the have a lock grip 5$ And that’s about it.

    Brake grease 11$ cnr brand (preferred) and silicone grease if you want to go that far, not being extra. At the car places, mode don’t care and don’t even put anti size to make your stuff last longer And anti seize 11$ any brand will do

    In total you can buy the tools and do it yourself with free online instructions for about 200$ and buy the part which will be around 180 so like 400$ is what at most it should have cost you for 1 caliper. Your self. Next time you only need to buy the caliper and take everything apart and spend 200$ for each caliper. Depending on the cost. That’s the formula though Excluding drum rotors.
