70-100k depending on how and where you drive.
We do a lot of Rocky Mountain driving, 75k with no problems. but I drive it like a little ole lady and very rarely use brakes.
I did a inspection on the 99 Southwind right after we bought it a year ago, the pads looked brand new and it had 50k miles on it, I'm not sure but I suspect they were replaced just before I bought it.
On my old 2001 Mirada, I put new pads on it at 65k miles, They still had maybe 1/3 life in them, but they were drycracking and brittle. I use Wagnor extreme duty pads on all four axles.
If I don't get to it this year, next year I'll replace the pads and hoses on the 99 Southwind.. cheep piece of mind.. Pads are about $35 an axle, hoses are about $15 each (need 5). repack the bearings at the same time.
