Squeaky when braking (new brakes)

lemme start out with: I did forget to lube the back of the pads before i put them on and forgot to lube the other areas as needed.


K..i put on new brake pads about 2 weeks ago (been hearing the squeaking ever since)
I thuroughly cleaned all the areas with brake cleaner before putting everything back together. The brake pads i put on were the ones from Canadian tire (munro 3yr warranty) iduno if they are semi mettalic or the other kind.

IF i take everything off and lube everything up will the squeaking go away? Is there a way to kill the squeaking with everything still on? (like a spray of some sort?)

yes but you will need to put some antisqueel stuff on the back of the pads and break the glaze on the pads with some sand paper(I use 80 grit) make sure that you clean the caliper slides and lube them with sylglyde caliper lube :) then seat the pads by going bown the road about 35 mph and break as hard and as fast as you can without locking up :biggrin: and you will be set :smokin:

Yeh, went and bought a tube of blue stuff, took everything apart, cleaned it again and lubed up everything, sanded everything.

I'm a happy camper about that..thx :)
