Recently, I installed Bosch QuietCast front brake pads on my 92 Toyota pickup 2wd along with new rotors. Did install new hardware, and lubed it all up properly.
Have an annoying very loud low speed squeal that happens randomly from the driver side front, and maybe once or twice over a 35 mile trip. I have used Sylglyde brake grease under the shim, on both sides of the shim, and then bought a bottle of CRC Disc brake Quiet to see if that would work, and nothing I have done will stop it.
I have decided to just get rid of the pads, and go buy something else locally. The truck has drums on the back, so I am leaning toward semi-metallic, but I think I might be better off with organic pads because semi-metallic do tend to be more noisy. Not sure what to think about front ceramic pads on an old pickup with rear drum brakes.
Have numerous auto part stores around here locally, so could anybody recommend an organic brake house brand or what ever, or are they just cheap junk? Have less than a 1,000 miles on these new pads and rotors, so I am just going to do a quick pad slap with new brake grease, and then hope for the best.
