First Help Post!

that's what i think I'm going to do. Anyone know of a pad that doesn't dust a whole lot? my front pads dust like you wouldn't believe.

 

anything but ceramic..they dust worst than the rest...that was another concern when they first came out!

 

yea i thought i heard something about that. Thanks guys! guna have to wait till after Christmas to buy some pads though, unless one of you gents would like to buy me a nice Christmas/birthday present

 

I'm not arguing but in my opinion, ceramics don't dust at all... I've run em in my last 2 trucks and never had brake dust on my wheels... I don't think they stop as good as the organics or semi metallics but they seem to keep the wheels clean... I'm going to EBCs next though with some drilled n slotted rotors

 

hmmm maybe i should look at some product reviews. my fronts dont dust at all. not sure what kind of pads they are. maybe i should pull them off and check them out

 

since no one mentioned it, could it be the E-brake pads rubbing? they are easily forgotton about and hidden very well with rear disc and they make a lot of noise when rubbing!

 

good call but i've already had my E-brake cut lol

 

Forgot to add something else, this may help to diagnose my problem. The rear wheel (dk which one for sure) squeeks while im driving. you cant hear it while im going fast but you can hear if im going like 25mph.

 

my pads got lifetime warranty, so i never have to pay for pads again, jsut take them in and they give me new ones.... haha

 

what makes me nervous is you are hearing a howl and not a screetch or metal on metal sound....deff check your brakes but id also look into other options mentioned....maybe you jsut couldnt come up with the right words for it but ive never had brakes howel...lol

i also have ceramic brakes with no dust...they arent all bad...ill look for box in my garage and let you know what brand...
