Default squeaky brakes

Hey, I've got a 95 Dodge Neon, and the brakes squeak terribly bad. I had the entire braking system replaced almost two years ago, but the squeaking continued. The brake pads are new and have plenty of life left in them. Does anybody know what could cause this, or what to fix on it?

Thanks

Default RE: squeaky brakes

The crap that they make the new shoes out of is real hard . To get them to seat you have to go about 60 then brake real hard. Do this about 5 or 6 times or till you smell the brakes are hot. If you do not brake them in hard they become glazed and it is like steel on steel.
