if you have the brake calipers that have the pins that the sides slide on then you need to take them out of the rubber boot and put more grease inside, my dads truck did the same thing until we greased the sliders again, i cant find the tutorial on front brakes now to show u what i mean but if i do ill be sure to post the link,

do a search in the 2nd gen dak forum as they are the same, and that is where this tutorial is
