whenever im in a confined area driving straight i can hear my brakes chirp every revolution, and if im turning left or right the chirp gets louder, its really annoying. and when i go to stop the brakes even squeal... whould this be bad discs or pads?? Anyone? sumone said sumpthing about clips on your calipers that you can bend to separate the calipers more so they wont rub?? i dunno

How much life do your pads have left? They have a metal tab on them that will make a rubbing noise. It's just there to make you look at your brakes and realize the pads need to be changed, and only disc brake systems have them, meaning the back drums dont have a wear indicator. (as fas as i know i have never seen anything other than a disc brake with one). With out knowing more, I would say that you need new pads.

Sounds like worn out front pads to me also, and the rr. drum brakes dont have squeakers.......
