squeaky brakes

[Chris Joyce]

Help! My brakes continue to squeak. I've taken off the tire and looked at the front pads and they seem to have enough meat on them. I replaced the pads and rotors about 12,000 miles ago.What else could it be? joycie:blink::huh:

I've got that same problem. So far I've put about 2500 miles on mine (2002 w/ 24,000 total miles), and I can't figure it out. Dealership took a look at it and same thing. Do you notice your front rims collect a lot of brake dust in a short amount of time? Mine certainly do.

With me, it's my rear drums.

Sometimes the brake pads get to a hard spot in the pad and they will continue to squeel. My brakes did this and I changed them with a set of carbon metallic, problem solved.

I will tru to replace them with some performance friction pads and see if the problem gets solved.

Go to Advance Auto. Mine were squeeking like hell after putting new brake shoes and slot and drilled rotors on. I changed to ceramic pads and put on thier brake grease in the small packets on thier front counter and have not heard a churp from them since.(2 months ago)

Mike....I run the Kleen-wheels on my Trac...they are disc that are designed specific to your wheel...they do a good job, keeping the brake dust off the outside of the wheels..
