disk front, drum rear. Disks are easier to replace, but drums aren't really bad either.

i think they're equal, it's just the fronts seem easier to people because many of them don't know the inner workings of drum brake systems.

I know them and it's still easier for me to do disks...just cause I hate cleaning out the drums of brake dust build-up
