anybody with an S-series found good deals on brakes or anything? ive had mine for a year and havent touched em but theyve been fading lately, and i heard one of the squeelers go a bit last night so its time. its ZR2 so with bigger wheels and heavier truck stockers are pretty bad. prolly gonna do wheel bearings too but only if im already taking the rotor off. just lookin for advice

wheel bearings are a sealed unit that bolt to the "spindle" rotors are slip on style and are like $12
at least early s series are like that

ive only done wheel bearing on my IROC. just repacked them as they were in good condition, i figured blazer would be the same. sounds like the same thing?

i just remember hearing that wheel bearing wear out fast on ZR2s due to bigger wheels. they use same ones as normal blazer
