shim stuff
What parts / partnumbers do I need for a full set of shims and whatever I related parts I need for a front/rear brake job on the svx?
I'm looking at subaru parts, and they have a 75 dollar pad kit #11 for the front and a 50 dollar pad kit f#13 or the rear. If I buy one of each kit does that take car of borth L and R fronts and L and R rears, or do I have to buy two sets of each? It almost looks like its cheaper to buy them individually.... what parts do I really need? I know I don't have shims for the front(and probably the rear) since Midas threw them away(stuck to the old pads) This is all a bit confusing and expensive... I'm really tired of scaring pedestrians in parking lots while braking at 10mph!

those parts (#11 and #13 on the 1992 AWD diagram) include the pads as well as all the shims for front/back, left/right.
