Another rubbing brakes thread
OK i cant get a good answer out of anyone else so i hope you may have som answers.
About a month ago i canged all my pads (4wheeldisc) cuz all of them were SQUEEKY!!! wen its all said and done my Passenger rear brake seames to be rubbing at low speed takeoffs, lowspeed braking and wen ever i apply about one third brake at normal driving.
So i rplacer the rotor figuring i warped it somehow and then it just started rubbing like MAD wenever i hit the brake, like a scary, ruin my caliper rub.
Then realizing i didnt lube my guide pins i did that and it helped, allitle.
NOw its making a rubbing sound At random BRAKING! Ill takeoff,, no rub, stop at a light, no rub, then ill tkae off again and i hear it slightly and ittl disapear as i get up to speed then make the rubbing sound wen i decide to stop again!!!!!!!
It WIll and Always makes a rubbing sound wen i make a right turn! Ive thought of everything i can and NOTHING COMES TO MIND!
If it was a stiky caliper it would make the rubbing sound all the time, Wouldnt it?
PLease help, anyone.

Wow, it's hard to read that w/o getting a headache. Are your brake pads too close to your rotors, have you double checked your calipers to make sure they are good and not broken/about to break? Some more people should chime in soon.

when you changed your brakes did you install all the little springs they are anti rattle and on my old car when they were missing caused the same problem
Sorry bout the headache man.
The caliper seemed good and well, but how could the pad be To close?
im not to much of a brake man myself but i thought they will always have some contact with the rotor.
My rear pistons in the calipers actually have no type of hole or insertion point for the spring as you said. my old pads were never secured by the spring so i just snipped em off. and if that was the case wuldnt my driver side rear be making the same noise?

have you had the rotor off if not try cleaning the inside of rotor and end of axle some rust or dirt may cause an interference on my 87 the pads had a clip that went around pads i had to replace it to get rid of a clicking noise i had but checking for the rust may help
