"Now we're dealing with taking the tires off of the vehicle; this gives you another chance to inspect your brakes. This, this that we're doing right here is a drum brake so you would have to it apart and you would be dealing with shoes; so you just take it apart, move it back; just how what amount of shoes that you still have and so with disk brakes you would see how much pad that you had left. Then you just look around in the area in here to make sure that nothing is broken or fallen off; you don't have any fluid leaks as far as the brake fluid. If you look behind this round piece; back here, this is where you would see another brake line going in just inspect that back there to make sure enough fluid. You can look at your shots to make sure you have, the shocks aren't leaking and just make sure everything is tightened up and look around to see just; just generally make sure that there's nothing else that needs to be repaired in this area. So you just; once you do all four tires you just look around an area, make sure everything's all good and you shouldn't have any problems. So that, that concludes just inspecting the brakes and checking around to make sure you don't have any other repairs that you have to do."
