[QUOTE="Mustang5L5, post: 16630807, member: 38517"] That’s all I swapped on when I did my test fitting, and what others have swapped. If you think about it, the caliper doesn’t actually touch the rotor. It’s completely floating and only squeezes the pads. Any grinding is likely to be rotor interference with the pad support bracket. Yank a wheel off, then used washers tighten the lugs against the rotor. Check out much gap you have with the bracket to the face of the rotor and see if it’s centered. If not, you might need to shim it, or slightly clearance the slot. I had the same issue years ago on my 03GT where one rear brake would make noise and the caliper would stick. Ended up replacing that entire pad bracket as the pads sat tight on it. Problem solved. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
