Screeching

Post by Sircharles2 » Tue Nov 23, 2010 3:28 pm

Hi Guys,

Im getting a screetching when I hit the brakes.

Sounds like left side, That caliper has always been sticking ever since I took it out to clean the piston and damaged the seal putting it back in.

The pads however seem fine having looked at them today.

Do the back shoes get used when braking?

Thanks
Graham

but could I maybe get the repair seal kit instead?

Thanks

Im just wondering are the shoes gone?

All four wheel brake when u put ur foot on the peddle. If the shoes are shot you cud be getting metal on metal in the drum.
