Front Calipers...

Alright, I heard this clanking noise when id run over any size object, such as coal patch.. No animals or anything like that.. but today it drove me nuts, and i got some time to check it out.. Comes to be that the front driver caliper is loose, but the bolts are tight.. so my guess is the Rubber bushings are shot... Stopping power is great! No vibrations when breaking.. I dont want to buy new calipers, i am in need of a pickup truck, and i am working every day 10hrs... today we got off early... anyway how can i fix this? Can i buy new little bushings?

New bolts/bushings (not sure if you can get them seperately) should tighten them up. Try that before anything else.

autozone sells the bolts and bushings together for about $15.

Thank you both very much! I thought i might have to buy new calipers and have to bleed the brake system, I suck at that, I never can get both sides Equal..
