Relining Service Brakes

I'm going to take our 04 HR Imperial (RR8S chassis) in for service in a couple of weeks. Since the rig has 108k mi on it I am going to have the Brakes inspected. I'm not having any problems or noise etc out of the service brakes but I want it checked to see how much is left on the Pads/Shoes etc. I had it checked at 70k and was told that I had about 50% left then.
The question is what should I expect to pay if I need a complete reline or just front pads?
Ron

When we sold our previous coach at 155K there was still about 50% remaining. Depends on usage of course, but I would be skeptical of a call for replacement at 108K....98K on the current Dynasty and they are still well over 50%.

Thanks for the input. I'm taking it to Petes Road Service in Corona, Ca. They are a very pro shop with a newer facility that I took my previous coach to when we lived there so I trust them.

Took it in this a/m. 90 min later the job was done. They inspected the brakes and lubed and adjusted the rears. That and the lube job only cost $58! The labor charge time was 30 min. They also checked brake life and told me I have 70% left. I guess playing those games of always using the jake and anticipating slowdowns etc is paying off. Petes Road Service in Corona, Ca, my new prefered service provider.
