Brake sound

I changed the front pads in July last year and it might be time for them to be changed again since they were only 10 bucks. But i was searching and i found a thing about wheel bearings. It did not say exactly the noise i had so i figure i ask. When i am in park and i go to drive or reverse it does not matter and i have the foot on the brake pedal and goto steer to get out it makes this god awful sound like a caliper would be stuck but i do not have any problems driving with it if it would be stuck. It is not a clunk but more like arhhh sound like something crunching, its hard to explain. The pads are starting to squeal real bad so i cleaned them up after draining the oil and putting it back in the engine trying to solve oil leak. I am gonna jack it up saturday and see if the pads are getting bad and if the rotors are glazed or warped.

Re: Brake sound

Check your transfer case and differential fluids.

Re: Brake sound

Transfer case fluid good and front and rear differential fluid good. They look to be where they need to be just discolored i guess from age. I might do the transfer case on sunday since it has both plugs there the other two i wont touch.

Re: Brake sound

Check caliper pins for play and wear.

Grease your front end.

10-11 grease fittings.

Re: Brake sound

I will check the pins.
The front end was greased at the end of February right after inspection.

Re: Brake sound

Did you grease it?

Did you make sure all 10-11 fittings were greased?

I did not grease it because thats something i do not have patience to do.

I took those pics a few minutes ago. The rotors look good the pads are iffy only about 1/4" left. There is yellow liquidy grease type stuff at the end of the cv boot like it would be oozing from there and a little on the side of the shock absorber and some back a little. Could that be the problem right there?>
