[QUOTE="Bryan Tobey, post: 997014, member: 69534"] Brake noise can come from anywhere there is vibration or binding. Inspect the caliper slides to ensure they are moving freely and replace the rubber boots if brittle or cracked. Check out the pad hardware (abutment and retaining clips). These will loose 70% of their tensile strength within 24 months of installation, so they likely need to be replaced. As Vic mentioned, pull the rotors and look at the parking brake shoes. If they are improperly adjusted they can contact the drum and cause noise. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
