I have fought brake squeal since the beginning of the summer when I replaced my calipers, rotors, and pads. I have tried all sorts of anti-squeal products, metal backings, rubber backings, silicone, PTFE Teflon tape, cutting grooves in the pads, chamfer the pad edges and more to no avail.
My latest solution as documented on my previous blog entry worked for 3000 miles until the squeal came back.
So today I will disassemble my brakes and inspect and measure every part to determine the cause. I also have a rebuilt Lockheed caliper that I intend to install as a comparison to the new Moss caliper.
I currently have Moss Calipers, Wagner pads and Classic Gold rotors. I believe that at the end of this video, I have found what I believe is the problem and I am hopeful that brake squeal will be a thing of the past. Please comment on your thoughts at this point. When I reassemble my brakes, I am using EBC rotors and pads with Lockheed rebuilt calipers. I will follow-up on this.

Your preamble says ‘hope that brake squeal will not be a thing of the past.’ Perhaps remove the ‘not.’ Since your professionally rebuilt Lockheed calipers leaked, you should share with us how that was resolved and hopefully at no additional cost to you, including return shipping. If no resolution, it may be helpful to share with the readers who did the rebuild so that they can choose whether or not to use this company.

I am working on a response and follow up. But grass cutting and trying to get my car ready for tomorrow is priority
