2000 cav. anyone done a brake job?

Hey - My gf drives a '00 cav. The brakes are pulsing, I'm guess the front rotors warped to some extent, but I'm clueless about drums. I've done a brake job on my T-bird (ABS - 4 disc), but I've never messed with a chevy, and never messed with drums.
I'm just curious if anyone's done a brake job on thier car and if it's something that can be done without a lot of trouble, or if it's best to leave it up to the "pros".

It's a pretty straight forward deal, if they are pulsating it's probably just the rotors. Hanging pads is a piece of cake if you can find someone to remachine the rotors for ya.

Most likely 9mm. Good luck finding one. I used a 3/8 inch and it worked perfectly!
