My Driver rear disc is clean and smooth, but my pass rear is all ground up and it makes grinding sounds.
I’ve been driving on a 2000 mile roadtrip and don’t have issues with alignment or getting up to speed on the highway.
Weve been on some dirt roads. is it possible sediment got caught between the pad and rotor?
2008 Silverado
Autozone will let you borrow their tools to get the job done, unless you have a 1/2” breaker bar, it will be difficult to get the caliper frame off, meaning you can’t replace the rotor, I would just but some caliper grease and pads and brake clean, see if you pins are stuck in the caliper, lube them. Then replace the rotor at home.
This sounds like the best bet. Closest firestone wants $950. If I can free up the caliper then everything else should be smooth sailing.
Can I replace one pad and do the rest later or will it throw everything off?
I just want to get home and replace everything with premium parts.
Yes a pad set, inner and outer pad for one caliper, one side of the vehicle. And when you do both sides put on ceramic pads
