Squeak!!!!

1994 Mustang GT 5.0 Conv.

Ok... Guys I can not stand it any longer... I have a squeak.... There I said it...

I have a squeak that has been driving me absolutely insane…

It is coming from both rear sides … brakes I thought

Here is want I have done so far… the metal shroud was touching a little I bent that out, but still squeaked… I changed the brakes pad and had rotors turned, but still squeaked… then someone said I should change the wheel bearings, I said ok … I had NO idea how to do this but yea... I decided to do it on my own… 15hrs later Walla!! Finished… STILL SQEAKS…

This is a sqeak that you hear everytime the wheel rotates...

I need help guys..

Could it be that since I bought the cheap brake pad the Mustang gods is cussing me every single time my wheels rotate??? I think maybe… Before I buy the $60.00 pads I need to know what yall think, so I don’t light my car on fire…

Thanks, Michael

Put the rear end up on two jack stands (meaning get the wheels about a 1inch off the ground with two jack stands directly under the rear end.

Put your car in gear and see if it squeeks. If it does not, then you might have a bad bearing out back, or...your drive shaft maybe rubbing on your mufflers.

Re: Squeak!!!!

my best advice is if u have acess to a lift then put it up in the air so u can get under it and then u can c where the squeak is coming from

if u cant use a lift just put the back end up enough so u can get under it and put some jack stands under it

BUT MEMBER IF U JACK IT UP TO PUT SOMETHING IN FRONT OF THE FRONT WHEELS SO IT DOESNT ROLL AWAY
i almost had that happen to me and i saw it happen to someone else...it sucks dont do it

ok well that was my .02
bye
