£800 + vat supply and fit 2 rear disks and pads on 19t tuck
The price might not be comparable to uk but 6hrs labour quoted - sound reasonable?

I was quoted £439 for an oil and filter change and inspection on my van, so I think your job sounds cheap!

Probably £300 a side for the discs and pads on an HGV heavy axle (11ton). Sounds not bad. It's when they come back to you mid job and say" oh yes sir, we also need to change the ABS sensors and pad wear sensors"

Tbf it's disks as well and I do everything else on the firmbut for the truck I don't have a big jack or windy gun ...I will go off doing something I enjoy for the day and let someone else wrestle for a change.

Bit of an update on lorry as its 2 years since I bought it and ffs thats gone bloody quick !
It had 265k on it when I bought it and that clicked to 300k today
Not required much up to now
had it serviced by local firm and at same time it had disks and pads changed.
It has a strange thing where it throws a coolant level warning from time to time nearly always when you have been going up hill and as you crest the top and start downhill it throws the warning, if you lightly rock the truck it goes off.....level is good so reckon it must be sensor, which is an affair like this into top of rad.
Other than the above its been very solid, not at all like the iveco felt, and after running it for a while it has come to feel like a very handy size - carries 10t but nigh on as handy as my old 7.5t in reality but carries the 6.5t and its attachments easily.
Fingers crossed for another year or few.

I'm shocked at how quickly time goes these days ... we have many 'fixed points' in our weeks and don't they ever come around unbelievably quickly

I still like the idea of a roll on roll off but then I discovered the other day my ramps are a nice angle onto the back of the grab but would mean lifting the door on and off everytime
