Default Re: No Squeal, No Dust Brake Pads?

Sometimes part of the issues with squeaks have to do with lubricating the components during installation:

* Make sure you use a silicone based grease (i got mine from Autozone, AGS / .14 oz. (4 g.) Sil-Glyde brake lubricant , 1.19usd each, used 2 poaches)

*Get rid of baked brake dust on the guides//rails where the brake pads silde, screwdriver will do (on the caliper) or soft paper-sander. When clean, lubricate guides//rails.Some folks use brake cleaner, i didn't deem as necessary.

*Lubricate back side of brake pads, slide pins (2) and slide pin caps.



Put everything back together...it work for my Rotex. Hope helps.


Salu2
