94 sable lts

I own a 1994 Mercury Sable LTS My question is are the brakes disc brakes?
I don't know nothing about cars my friend said they were but I really don't know. Also when I ask my dads friend he said something about that these brakes have ball bearings that you gotta change or take off. I'm not really sure and that it takes awhile so does it? Thanks sooo much :>

More than likely you have drum brakes on the rear and disc brakes in the front.

If you take off one of the rear wheels you'll see a circular metal plate that is somewhat cup-like with the "sides" of the cup pointing towards the car as opposed to pointing at you. That is the drum.

If you pop off a front wheel and do not see this same cup-like plate setup, you have disc brakes in the front.

With regard to ball bearings...your friend is more that likely referring to axle bearings which only need replacement once in great while and only after they've gone awry.

sweet thanks alot man

well the front disc brakes went on with ease just the rear disc brakes the caliper compress thing wont go in at all. i tried c clamps and a screwdriver with a hammer hitting it clockwise no luck at all. i dont know but its pissing me off. any ideas? thanks

im going to be picking up a piston cube tool today. from what i read i push in and turn clockwise. hopefully everything works out good :D
