    Brake shims...

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I installed my rotors\pads couple weeks ago...
    first 2 weeks, the brakes worked really well...with no problems..
    Recently, squeeling started to occur, and just couple days ago "rattling" noises came from the brakes when goin over bumps (b\c no rattle noises when goin over bumps with the brakes engaged)..

    I was searching the forums, and I've read that some of the aftermarket pads come with brake shims....I tried adding more anti-squeel to the back and re-installed, but the problem remained.

    would these be the problem that would cause my pads to be loose??
    Anyone know where I can pick up a set of shims for my pads?? or are there universal ones??

    Pagid fronts, mintex rears, Zimmerman all around..

    Good idea or no??
