Squelch the Squeek
#5
Hi all, Whoops there is a chance that adding all those pads makes the shims a bit " springy " and cause the pads themselves not to retract the tiny amount to clear the rotors as Peter mentions.
This could be a bit of a problem if they drag and heat up some, just be aware of this but good to hear the progress, seems you are on the case!

Never gave this a thought but; what keeps the pads in place, is it solely the pins or do they use a part of the caliper as well to transfer the brake force to the caliper housing and keep them aligned?

Very nice photo's by the way!

Power of dreams eh? nice touch!
