Re: no brakes :(
Go for the stainless lines. I guess your e-brake cable was sticking and dragging long enough to wear out those pads?

Re: no brakes :(
+1 on stainless lines. I would suggest getting the shoes and cables new from a Subaru dealer. I know I can get them very quickly.
Where are you having the work done?

Re: no brakes :(
I have a brand new set of SS lines still in the package that I would sell for $90 shipped....

Re: no brakes :(
on the risk of sounding completely stupid....when you say ss lines, does that include all the lines i am asking for or is that just from the emergency brake cables...not the shoes or the hoses?
what is the line for e-brake? or front/rear brakes? i am having the work done about 20 minutes outside warren county new jersey in pa. basics of what happened to the brakes: the car has been sitting for about 3-4 years without being driven and all. now i am trying to get her back on the road and with every step forward, i am taking 6 back  i really want to fix her, but it is getting expensive.

Re: no brakes :(
I have a parts car with everything you need to. Sadly I'm in Las Vegas, Nevada and the parts car is sitting in Marydel, delaware. I would let you have the parts, but I dont have anyway to set you up with them right now. sorry.

i have a feeling that the brakes are only the tip of the iceberg. then i get to drive it "safely" around the block or so to find out what else is wrong with it Kelli
