have you rechecked everything to make sure its all tight still? also did you go with cheap pads or rotors?.. either way get the rim off and inspect everything first. _________________ 1985 Z28. Don't know what im doing stupid 4th gen broke me.

| You also need to check the caliper mounting hardware. The slides need to be lubricated with high temp silicone grease, and not worn. Worn mounting hardware will cause vibration, which cause brake sqeel. Just watched a 1 hour video put out by Raybestos on this subject yesterday. Very imformative. |
