It's become easier to do this lately. If the rotors have been turned, I would just go get new ones, with new pads. Same for shoes and drums. Stuff for these cars is easy to get. You can replace all of it with new for the price of paying a shop to do one end.
And you don't have to have the car gone for a day.

Ya thats a bit on the steep side....ouch! Last time I did a brake job on my stang I got 2 rotors wich were like 20 bux each, front pads were like 25, shoes were 18, and new bleeder valves all the way around for like 2 bux. Think I might have done new wheel bearings also but couldnt find the recipt for thoughs. If you cant do the work your self always get the parts your self you will save alot of cash that way for the same exact thing! But all in all you did get alot of wear out of your breaks, 45000 miles is realy good!
really its not that hard. i think its 10 bolts each side that you have to undue to replace the fronts. the drums are a little more difficult. heres an idea, if you have a digital camer take a picture of it before it comes off paying attention to bolts and spring (for the rear) its really easy to put back together
