[QUOTE="BlueVenom01, post: 6958037, member: 41525"] I have recently gone through the brake squealing issues myself...here's what I would suggest: - that pin with the loop is actually a spring-type mechanism that should be underneath the calipers. looks like it has popped out - you will need to remove the caliper and make sure the "rabbit ears " are sitting underneath the caliper. if it is bent you can try to bend it back in place so it lines up correctly. - are your pads in good shape? maybe they do need to be changed. they could be glazed over from excessive heat - put some anti-squeal compound on the backs of the pads when you have the calipers off. make sure you put the compound where the caliper is touching the back of pad. - get some hi-temp caliper grease and grease all metal to metal contact points. especially where the anti-rattle clips seat in the anchor brackets. also grease the caliper slide pins. the caliper bolts are attached screwed into these pins - makes sure your caliper bolts are tightened to spec and the anchor bracket bolts are tightened to spec - if these things don't solve the problem, you may need to get your rotors resurfaced or just replace the rotors. Hope this helps... [/QUOTE]
