It really depends on what you need. I did the axle on my tandem a couple of months ago which needed the caliper pistons and shoes replaced. It is best to purchase the entire plate that has the backing plate, calipers, pads and pistons all together. You just detach the existing brakeline, unbolt the plate, reinstall and bleed the system. Pretty easy. You will want to check,clean and repack the wheel bearings while you have them off. If the master cylinder needs to be replaced it will require more work. The plates where about $50.00 each and a couple of hours of my time.
