Ever since I put new pads on the front of the Jeep, I've had a constant chirp at what seems to be both wheels. Sounds like two canaries hoppin' on the good foot and doing the bad thing. It goes away with the slightest pressure applied to the pedal. Any way to make them shut the f#$k up?

I bet you forgot to put the Anti-rattle clips back on didn't you... Ha ha and if you didnt then you must not have made sure they were on correctly. Take the wheel back off and have a look. They also sell new ones at auto zone for less than 5 bucks.

I guess I COULD replace the old crappy rotors. But... ugh.

you pads have clips on them. Mine didn't damn. I got jipped. But i know i was having a hard time keeping my pads straight till i put the damn clips on. I guess maybe you have a warped rotor. not too expensive what 40 bucks a piece

Yeah Stryker, stop buying things from the J.A. Pan Company. I don't see any place for anti-rattle clips on this setup, but the rotors could stand to be replaced, they're pretty glazed over. Oh well, add it to the list...

That's what I used to tell ppl that rode my old trail bike. They'd ask where the brake was, and I'd just say "... What's a brake?"
