Default Brakes on 99 Discovery

Hey guys, the rear brakes on my '99 Discovery are at 5% and the fronts are 30%. I have changed brakes on my Chevy Truck and on my MGB but never on a Land Rover. How tough a job is it? Front Rotors are good, just needs pads. Rears need rotors and pads. Is there a need to rebuild the calipers or change out the seals? I do expect to do a fluid flush. What do you all think, $650 to the Indep. Shop or $250 for a kit and 4 or 5 hours work this weekend? Phil

Do it yourself, they are not hard to do.
Where are you buying your parts from?
Use extra sound deadening spray and do a full brake bleed, 3 pints of DOT 4.
