[DeTomaso] brake sounds

[Christopher Kimball]

Sounds like a possibility--I'll check that out.
 
Thanks,

Chris,
 
I have seen rear Porterfield pads which extend outside the diameter of the brake rotor. This leads a ridge of brake pad material which rides on the top edge of the brake rotor and can make peculiar noises. The solution was to file the pad so it slopes away from the outside diameter of the rotor.
 
Have fun
