Dear guys/girls, I am having a problem with my truck that bugs anyone here so far. When I turn my wheel to the right with the truck on park and without the brakes applied I have brake noise coming from the pads and rotor on the passenger side, it does not make noise turning to the right, also I do not have it when I am driving or when I come to a stop. Last week I put in new pads, the old ones where glazed and the noise did not go away. Then I suspected it was the caliper, it is the original and with 120k miles it did not looked ok, so I did a test: open the bleeder to see if releasing the pressure between the hose and the caliper would make the noise disappear, brake fluid came out but did not worked, I thought that the caliper pistons where stuck and replaced the caliper with a rebuilt unit and I changed the pads. I can turn the tire by hand and it spins free, I checked the the suspension components , it checks ok. I greased the upper ball joint. The only repair on that area that was done was the shocks that were replaced, I checked torque on all its nuts and it is ok.
Thank you for your answers and help.

 

Did you put any anti-seize or disc brake quiet on the back of the pads where they rest against the piston and caliper? You can also put anti-seize on the flat spots of the steering knuckle where the caliper slides back and forth as well as insideand outside of the caliper bolt slides.

Outside of that, the other thing that could be clicking in that area that may have you thinking it is the caliper and pads is the axle U-jouints. They could easily be your source of the noise. Check them out and the trackbar mount on the axle.

Good luck, and I hope you find it soon.

 

Thank you for your answer, I used brake lube on all parts and no help. I am suspecting that the pressure in the caliper is not been fully released after driving, I will replace the hose to see if it will solve the problem. I took the pads off and they are glazed again after a 5 miles drive.
Thank you.

 

Problem solved: brake hose had two bad spots, not enough to lock the tire but to not completely release the pad. Part is in back order at the dealer ( it is a common problem in this truck ), got new hose at advanced auto parts in Hazlet, NJ ($34). Thank you for your help.
