I was having this annoying rattle in the right rear wheel. When I took off the wheel to inspect it I found the backing plate rusted to the point of falling off. This is the plate that the hand brake cable goes through. I also looked at the other side and found that one rusted severly also. Has anyone else had issues like this? Frome looking at it I assume the side axels have to be removed to install new ones.
Thanks.
Em brake and rotors here on my 99.
Was told by the dealer that this is a common problem due to all the crap that sprays up on and into this area.
He thought there was a shield upgrade ?
