not that peoples ideas are a bad thing but its a good idea that i decided to take the time and actually take a serious look at it. So i decided to work with it and back it up to where it was catching i then put the vehicle into neutral and proceeded to get out and attempt to push with both the vehicle on and off. Would not budge so i put it in park and inspected the tires and such area around the rim and what i came up with was "something" was grinding the actual alloy rim what appeared to be near the calipers so i took the tire off and looked inside and sure enough there was a solid mark all the way around the inside of the rim. The caliper looked unusually large for the vehicle. Also the rotor is considerably loose now i believe i tracked down this aspect of the problem and before i decide to just blow money and figure out what i might need any ideas ??? i rocked the caliper and it seemed pretty tight but the rotor is quite loose on the assembly. ???? any input maybe attempt to loosen the calipers or could it be to large of brake pads those looked pretty big themselves. now that i am certain it is not the tranny i am quite happy and want to get this fixed maybe tonight if i know where to start on this issue. could someone have put the incorrect caliper on and drive it before i got it and now i have this problem ? on the correct calipers i would need ( i wish my hands had not gotten so dirty or i would have taken pictures to post. )
PS sorry this is poorly written i am just really happy that its not as bad as i thought!!!
